Placefulness is a nature-themed immersive experience exploring our sense of place and presence. Author Jenny Odell defines 'placefulness' as living with a grounded consciousness in the present time and location. The installation, Placefulness, invites the viewers to contemplate a sequence of specific surroundings that activate our senses to connect with the present. The work juxtaposes minimal interpretations of nature with realistic nature sounds, creating an unexpected poetic encounter.
