Lenses is a series consisting of two installations. The first installation is Evolving Perspectives (Lenses 1), a digital drawing with augmented reality. The second is Emerging Questions (Lenses 2), a four-panel digital mixed media installation. Please scroll down to view my process. The Lenses series creates conversation spaces for building a collective future that is sustainable through a variety of evolving perspectives and emerging questions. The idea of multiple perspectives (lenses) invites questions such as: What is included and excluded in each lens? Can different lenses co-exist? Are current lenses enough? What language and discourse are within various lenses?
