  • Eclipse (Amazon, September 7, 1858) is made possible, in part, by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature through the Media Arts Assistance Fund a regrant partnership of NYSCA and Wave Farm.

Aquesta instal·lació immersiva de vídeo multicanal segueix el recorregut d’un eclipsi solar històric a través de la selva amazònica, combinant memòria personal, història indígena i urgència ecològica. Inspirada per l’experiència de la seva mare amb la demència i amb el suport de National Geographic/Lindblad, l’obra de Biggs ofereix una poderosa meditació sobre la connexió, la transformació i el fràgil equilibri entre els éssers humans i el món natural.
