Biophilia

Biophilia is an ongoing exploration of climate change in natural heritage sites in the United States. The odyssey has so far spanned 30,000-miles and captured 100,000 images and clips from around the country since 2007.

Initially intended to capture beautiful landscapes, Biophilia quickly evolved to document the consequential impacts of a changing climate on environments that have been stable for thousands of years. The alarming contrasts observed since 2008 took the abstraction of climate change and turned it into a tangibly visual experience; it confronts the viewer with meditations on creation, energy, attachments, identity, loss, and the memories that remain.
