About the Artist

ROBIN VUCHNICH  is a new media artist, adjunct lecturer at the North Carolina State University College of Design, and founder of the interactive art studio XO Immersive.  Her work leverages technology and art to engage with public science, social change, community, and the natural world. Involving projection mapped light, spatial augmented reality, generative art, and animation at monumental scale, these works have made a canvas of nine story buildings, museums walls, and the shoreline of the NC coast, 

Her recent installations explore themes of diminishing biodiversity, climate change, sea level rise, and coastal erosion—reflecting on the fragility of ecosystems and the temporal nature of both the natural world and human life, each shaped and interconnected by impermanence and continual transformation. She creates light-based immersive environments that merge scientific data with art inspired by the natural world, using visual storytelling and interaction to foster shared understanding and a quiet awe of nature and what it has to tell us.

Vuchnich’s large-scale projection work has been commissioned for light-based public art initiatives across the country, appearing serendipitously in national parks, on buildings in city centers, and in unexpected urban spaces. Her immersive installations have been featured at the Harvard Museum of Natural History, North Carolina Museum of Art, GreenHill Center for North Carolina Art, North Carolina Museum of History and the Gregg Museum of Art & Design.
