Jake Kaliszewski

I am an artist and engineer who envisages poetic relationships between human and non-human intelligences. From afar, my work aims to highlight the emotional multiplicity of nature and the tenderness of time in its many ways of being understood. Specifically, my practice uses light-hearted films and engineered objects to study my personal experience with tools and to tell better stories about rapidly advancing technologies. At the moment, I am concerned with the vastly complex systems of society or ecology and how a systems level understanding of ones environment might create more sustainable forms of consumption and communication. I am intrigued by the intelligence that naturally emerges from these systems and am working to discover a common language between myself and my evolving environment.
