“[dNASAb] is an innovative sculptor of ecosystems, infusing discarded materials and consumer electronics with the wisdom of natural symbiotic networks, pioneering interactive narratives through extended realities and augmented sculptures, while harnessing artificial intelligence models to collaboratively intervene in real-life environmental challenges, merging art and technology to illuminate prevailing notions of loss, decay, planned obsolescence, e-waste, and environmental degradation.”
