Conniveo

BBC

BBC Arts commissioned Georgia to create a virtual reality experience (VR) with a physical installation discussing ocean pollution.

Viewers are transported to an uninhabited island, far from anyone else on Earth, and are free to explore. However, the landscape is a long way from being a paradise. Submerging themselves in the vibrant ocean, the viewers notice a fishing net trapped between rocks which forms a pathway between themselves and a polluted world. It is their choice whether they follow to see the consequences of human activity, or remain behind the façade of beauty. Conniveo explores plastic pollution, oil spills, dead zones and ghost fishing.

“Conniveo provides a poignant glimpse of a landscape far from civilisation but still scarred by human activity.”
