Roscina’s multimedia installation poses the question: Is there still space for wonderment in nature amidst our current catastrophic ecological change? Make Hay While the Sun Shines uses the idea of the trace, the residue of objects—in addition to time-based works—to examine complex tensions of biophilia, awe, and loss as we enter together into an unknown future.
