Carbon Obscura was commissioned by Latrobe City Council as part of the Green Expectations project. Green Expectations is a three year arts project that aims to create dialogue within the community of the Latrobe Valley on climate change. Lloyd Godman’s work was commissioned as a centerpiece for the Gippsland Sustainability Festival with the aim of allowing people attending the festival to participate in, and enjoy a sensory experience that reflects on global warming and its relationship to the mining of coal to generate electricity. For more information on the Green Expectations project please contact the Creative Director, Alison Taylor 03 5128 5713.
