CONCORDIA: Artwork commissioned by DAATA


Concordia is also the name of the central being who acts as a symbolic guardian and restorative agent within this space. Inspired by hydrofeminist thought, she lives in reciprocity and solidarity with her surroundings. Her physiology has evolved to display hybrid traits: eelgrass has colonised her head, enabling her to filter polluted runoff and sequester greenhouse gases such as CO₂, thereby improving water quality.
The sound composition by Barney Kass brings the ecology to life, capturing the dynamic activity of its wildlife, plant life, and atmospheric conditions. Ever-shifting and immersive, the soundscape blends built, natural, and psychological landscapes, echoing the mutualistic collaborations between surrounding life forces, a recurring theme in Kass’s work.

I was commissioned by the digital art gallery Daata to create an immersive AR experience.
Concordia (Latin for "agreement") is an ecology set in an indeterminate earthly future, where creatures coexist in an aqueous network of interconnection. These beings share a unifying trait: they filter water in their environment to maintain ecological balance.
A selection of real-life creatures and plants features in the work, referencing Aires’ investigation of her local River Lea in East London, with scientific guidance from Bow Creek Ecology Centre. Common reeds, blue damselflies, and Asian clams, all known for their healing properties, play vital roles in maintaining and restoring the health of their aquatic environment.

I designed and optimized assets for this short film made in Unity.
Hervisions presented a digital celebration of British youth culture at London’s Saatchi Gallery.
The motion art installation, called 'Yours to Make: Fluid Imaginarium', has been produced using gaming technology and is an experimental artwork reflecting the fluidity of British youth. The viewer is taken through various immersive dimensions that follow the different guises of youth self-expression.
