Gan’s current exhibit in Triton Museum’s Digital Gallery, Carbon Sinks, Plastic Swims, is a series of animated films exploring carbon and plastic materials in our environment.

The exhibit invites viewers to consider the hidden relationships between carbon, plastic, and the environments they inhabit, highlighting the material origins and ecological impacts embedded within everyday substances.
