Order of the Biodivine
Team Members:
Oscar Schrag, Rachel Gorman, Jessica Thies
I designed the artifacts in CAD, the visual language, strategy, and positioning.
Background:
Our speculative, immersive satirical theater experience explores the intersections of religion, science, and interspecies symbiosis in an increasingly climate-insecure world. Set in a coming-of-age ritual in 2070 and using performance, mycelium artifacts, and projection mapping, this allegorical work encourages a new perspective on our relationship with biodiversity, genetic modification, and the natural world.
