Description

Orbiting, floating, hovering; this experience transports spectators to the future with the aid of projection mapping and the first-person narrative of a lone astronaut contemplating the love of his life which he has decided to leave behind in search of a better destiny.

Who is the love of his life? Do you hold her dear to your heart as well? In Orbit is an installation strives to tackle the emotional relationship that the human race has to the planet. It is under our impression that many struggle with their moral compass regarding their carbon footprint and the activities they execute in their life quotidian to aid its consequences. In a digital age, where screens become subject to most of our attention, have we lost our sensibility towards what powers them?
