The En Plein Air series is an ongoing body of work that has been growing online since January of 2012. The images in this series are created at the locations they depict — an encounter between the tools of digital communication and the unbuilt environment.
Rick Silva is an Assistant Professor of Digital Arts at the University of Oregon. His work has been shown in exhibitions and festivals worldwide, including Transmediale (Germany), Futuresonic (U.K.), and Sonar (Spain). His research has been supported through grants and commissions from places such as Rhizome and The Whitney Museum of American Art.
