THIS BURNING WORLD (2026)

THIS BURNING WORLD (2026), adapts stills from Gibson's 2022 video installation of the same name, originally commissioned by ICA SF and presented at the institution in 2022. Drawing on footage captured in upstate New York and during site visits to California's Bay Area, Gibson reconfigures stills from the original 60-foot-wide video installation into a tapestry-like field guided by pattern and rhythm. The work registers the precarity of humanity's relationship to the natural world while insisting on art's capacity to produce spaces of collective attention, in which reflection, encounter, and civic imagination can take form.
