Garret Kane’s Biospheres series imagines other worlds in a biophilic way. Infused with flora, fauna, and geometry, the collection utilizes code and 3D software to recreate natural elements. In a world where technology is rapidly accelerating, the human body becomes inextricably linked to machines, and the continued evolution of mass communication all impacts our surroundings, perception of self and the world we perceive: does our interconnectedness with technology take us further away from nature? The artist hopes to utilize cutting edge technologies to reconnect humanity and the living world.

By using new technologies to emulate ecology, these artworks explore storytelling and mythmaking – yet they also consider how other intelligent species might use symbols and lexicon to record their history and imagine their future. Each artwork showcases the dynamic, enigmatic, and ethereal qualities of the universe. Ultimately, they seek to preserve and celebrate humankind's connection with the universe while also suggesting that technology can be used to reverse damage done to the natural world.
