Artist Adam Larsen recently opened the first of three long-term art immersive installation projects, A Worm’s Eye View, at The David Brower Center in Downtown Berkeley. While typical people are able to see the big picture, or a “bird’s eye view,” this filmic installation investigates the natural world up close, giving importance to the details that make up the whole, such as the distinct grass blades that comprise the field. Created with autistic audiences in mind for the Common Senses Festival (2022), A Worm’s Eye View offers a means to share the beauty and splendor of our natural environment for all to enjoy – regardless of their financial, locational, cognitive, or physical capabilities.

Access Point, planned for next year, will be the second of the installation projects and will center around accessibility in outdoor spaces. Director Adam Larsen and Project Coordinator Sue Schroeder are looking for input and ideas from the local disability community. During this Zoom meeting, they will be sharing more details about the project, followed by a Q & A session and a chance for community members like you to share your ideas.

The current exhibit, A Worm’s Eye View, is free and open to the public at the Brower Center until August 22nd. For more information, please visit the Brower Center’s website.
