The first three tracks are studies for Naturae Vitibus (Nature Forces) : Tim Gruchy. Vibrantly expressing hidden forces within nature in an accelerated timeframe, Naturae Vitibus (Nature Forces), 2021, heightens our sense of the energies and powers within nature. Utilising site-specific 360 degree, 3D mapped projection with sound, a majestic Ficus macrophylla (Moreton Bay Fig) tree on North Terrace is given a different manifestation of life for the audience. The dynamic, high colour looping work explores notions of the temporal and ancient timescales, and how we perceive time in relation to nature. In playful ways it portrays the complexities and layering of growth cycles in nature, highlights the invisible underlying energies, elements and forces involved, and sets up a relationship with the audience of seeing, listening to, and taking time with nature anew.
