91大黄鸭 artist Lucas Glenn has been selected as the city鈥檚 next Artist in Residence.

The recent Masters of Fine Arts through the University of Victoria graduate is currently working on a project that will be released and shared with the community this fall.

This year鈥檚 theme is climate change and the environment. Glenn is working on a mobile, interactive art installation made from repurposed materials for this project.

The project is called M.A.S.S.I.V.E., which stands for Make-shift Anthropocene Symbiosis Station and Interface for Vibrant Exchange. M.A.S.S.I.V.E. will be installed in various 91大黄鸭 parks this fall and will feature small, interactive eco-contraptions made to help human beings, and non-humans, adapt to a changing climate.

According to Glenn, one of these contraptions uses a modified Gameboy to interface with nature. Once revealed the community will be able to interact with parts of the exhibit and the artist on-site.

I鈥檓 excited by this project鈥檚 potential for vibrant exchange with 91大黄鸭鈥檚 communities 鈥� both human and non-human,鈥� said Glenn.

The Artist in Residence program supports projects that will take place in 91大黄鸭. The program is intended to broaden the community鈥檚 experience with arts and culture and stimulate thoughtful conversations, said cultural services manager Christine McWillis.
