During my time at Next Nature, I worked on Once Upon a Time Earth; an exhibition exploring humanity's relationship with the planet we come from. We designed the exhibition with a circular route. The exhibition started with a larger than life layered cave a big impact installation for a big topic….How did the universe all start? The cave explores multiple different origin stories; scientific, religious and philosophical which can be pulled out from the layered panels of the cave.
The route then followed the ring exploring the following topics and installations….
Geo Lift: An immersive experience to the centre of the earth
Borehole Park: Figuratively drill through Earth's layers to discover how raw materials link everyday items like smartphones to resource depletion.
Plastiglite: View unique new rock formations created by human waste bonding with natural elements.
Climate Scenarios: Interactive setups let visitors make choices to influence future ecosystems and weather patterns up to the year 2040.
GEO Channel: Short artistic and scientific multimedia clips translating complex geological shifts into modern media
