Maya Lin’s newest memorial project takes the form of an interactive website titled, What is Missing? The work documents instances of decreasing biodiversity of species and extinction worldwide. There seems to be an infinite amount to learn from this website, go check it out for yourself!

Artist/Architect Maya Lin shows photographs of her work and shares where she finds her inspiration in this TEDxEast Episode. 

As one of the first projects for What Is Missing?, Maya Lin designed this “Listening Cone,” which was installed at the California Academy of Sciences in 2009. The cone is a cast-bronze form lined with reclaimed redwood. It draws in visitors with the sounds of 50 extinct or endangered species and landscapes. Images, quotes, and statistics emerge on a video screen inside the cone. (via Maya Lin’s Memorial to Vanishing Nature: e360 Gallery)

The environmental artwork/memorial that I work on for Maya Lin launches today (an early Earth Day celebration). Please like What is Missing? on FB and check out our website: www.whatismissing.net to learn about species and habitat loss, explore a history of the environmental movement, and see what you can do in your everyday life to make a difference.

The What is Missing? Foundation creates, through science-based artworks, awareness on the current crisis surrounding the mass extinction of species and habitat.
