“I seek to spark an innate sense of curiosity and possibility. By harmonizing emerging digital capabilities with timeless values underpinning humanity’s appreciation of nature, I want my artwork to compassionately further dialogue on our shared ecological future – one where human creativity might thrive in unison with technology and our planet. Though anchored in tradition, I fuse the old and new, the natural and digital, in hopes of revealing our world anew.” —Colleen Hoffenbacker
