Pollution Pods

Pollution Pods consists of five interconnected geodesic domes that replicate the varying levels of pollution found in London, New Delhi, São Paulo, and Beijing. Visitors embark on a journey starting from a coastal setting in Norway, moving through a series of cells that progressively intensify in pollution, transitioning from dry and cold environments to hot and humid conditions.

Commissioned by NTNU, Pollution Pods is part of Climart, a four-year research initiative exploring the psychological mechanisms that influence both the creation and perception of visual art. By integrating insights from natural sciences with visual arts, the project aims to foster a deeper understanding of environmental issues and their impact on our daily lives.
