Using traditional and future crafting technology, international artist Tricia Flanagan creates sculptural organic environmental devices to reveal the intelligence of natural systems and promote ecologies of empathy.
Flanagan produces permanent and temporary artwork for exhibition and display at the nexus of art, science & technology. Flanagan’s practice contributes to a growing canon of work in crafts-based human computer interaction often through wearables, smart materials, and haptic interfaces. She designs and creates immersive artworks for museums, art galleries and public spaces that enable people to imagine alternative futures. Her highly-crafted sculptural objects can be enacted to gather fresh data in an ongoing act of innovation and disruption. Her work contributes innovative alternatives to unsustainable design practices and proposes design solutions for futures of non-renewable resource scarcity. Flanagan aims to develop the social imagination and ‘plant seeds’ for transition to biosphere regenerative practices.
