During Holly Schmidt’s three-year residency at the University of British Columbia (UBC), she created Forecast (2019–23), a series of short poetic texts using weather report language to reflect on environmental changes. These reflective mirror-finish texts, applied to various campus architectural glazing, interact with the environment, highlighting weather and seasonal impacts on campus ecology. Initially installed on the AHVA Gallery windows and part of the exhibition ...we can know more than we can tell..., curated by Christine D’Onofrio, Forecast has also appeared on the clerestory windows of the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery and the Centre for Interactive Research on Sustainability (CIRS). Schmidt’s work explores human-nature relationships through site-specific public projects and material experiments.
