Robotic Installation

The Glitched Sublime

As Arctic poppies disappear with a warming climate, a robot attempts to preserve them - adding artificial flowers one by one to an increasingly lush synthetic landscape.

Performance & Generative Light Sculpture

Rebirth
A performer moves in real time with a generative light sculpture, her body responding to shifting light shaped by landscape-based environmental data.
In collaboration with Genna Carey

Maja Petrić creates evolving systems of light shaped by the natural world and by those who encounter them. Through environmental phenomena, computation, and spatial installation, she makes forces beyond ordinary human perception physically present.
