About this Event
Experience The Betsy Orb as you’ve never seen it before. Join us for a one-of-a-kind site-specific installation by renowned local transmedia artist dNASAb (pronounced “diz-nee”). Known for immersive, environmentally driven works, dNASAb transforms the Betsy’s iconic egg-shaped architectural bridge into a luminous meditation on the evolving relationship between technology, ecology, and South Florida’s threatened coastal ecosystems.
Aesthetics of Decay is a 19-minute XR cinematic intervention presented at architectural scale, unfolding across six chapters: Genesis, Cathartic Release, Technosphere, Digital Altars, Entanglement, and Healing — “…to decay, but still shine.” The Orb becomes altar, cathedral, memorial, broken screen, media sculpture, and signal field — a public-facing experiment in contemporary storytelling shaped through personal loss and disruptive media arts practice.
At the heart of this environmental body of work is a commitment to regeneration. dNASAb collects reclaimed marine debris from our local waterways, reconfiguring these materials into sculptural forms and using them as the foundation for environmentally charged films. The result: a cinematic projection that turns the Betsy Orb into both an architectural canvas and an ecological signal—amplifying urgent conversations about environmental stewardship, resilience, and our shared responsibility to the ecosystems that define South Florida.
