Community Canvas is an initiative presented by The Culture Show where GBH features artwork from community members on our Digital Mural.

Today’s mural is a still photo from Hierophany, a 30 second photo-video artwork by Lucia Ravens, Bach Ngo, and Adam Tully. This piece explores the intersections between ecological and social sustainability and examines the impact of sense of place, dissolution of form, and displacement on the contemporary cultural dynamic.

“Through my interest in multi-dimensional photography and the environmental sciences, I have pioneered forth the data utilization of Lidar Landscape Photography of the 21st century,” Ravens says. “I draw inspiration from the technology of lidar point cloud data visualization and thermal energy imagery to expand the narrative of the conservation movement on forest, farmland, and water body landscapes.”

Ravens is an image-maker, storyteller, and international award-winning photographer. She has cultivated a diverse practice ranging from photography, installations, sculptural photography, and performance.
