Sheltered
‘Sheltered’ will be an immersive, multi-sensory and interactive installation for one person at a time lying down inside a polar tent, that will explore climate change using real-time measurement of the visitor’s biometric data to trigger changes in simulated weather events.
Ambisonic, hydrophone and electro-magnetic recordings made across the course of 12 months at the same location inside the Arctic Circle will be used to shape an installation that explores this environment from an embodied perspective. This will be augmented with podcast-style audio recordings from the location, climate data and photographs.
‘Sheltered’ is an art and science collaboration between Lund-based artist Tim Bishop and the Climate Impacts Research Centre at Umeå University, supported by Kulturbryggan and Lunds kommun.
