Henry Driver, Secrets of Soil

360-degree video, 2021

Henry creates interactive and playful artworks inviting audiences to dive into virtual worlds and take control.  Secrets of Soil is an interactive digital journey that explores the hidden world of soil and its role in combating climate change.  The experience takes viewers into a microscopic world, to understand the many citizens of the soil and the essential roles they play in this diverse ecosystem.  The piece was inspired by his family's attempts to make their farming practices carbon negative.  Henry collaborated with leading Plant Science researchers from the John Innes Centre throughout the development, and he created the piece using video game and CGI software.
