Exhibition explores how artists can show us new ways to look at the forest

A new exhibition at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria has created a world where nature and the scientific meet, in Supernatural: Art, Technology and the Forest. Through photography, video and digital art, Supernatural explores how camera-based images shape our understanding of the forest. “The exhibition explores how artists working in the realm of photo and video art are showing us new ways to look at the forest, expanding our understanding of forest environments in surprising and significant ways,” says AGGV curator, Haema Sivanesan. The artists… use photography and film alongside computer generated imaging and 3-D technologies to pose the idea of a new approach to human relationships with trees.
