He completed undergraduate, doctoral and postdoctoral studies in philosophy and art at the University of Sydney, the University of New South Wales, the University of Technology, Sydney and ZKM, Germany.[1] Del Favero's work artistically explores the visualization of the unpredictable and evolving relationship between human and terrestrial systems as the result of global warming,[2] utilizing digital media and Artificial Intelligence.[3] His work is particularly interested in exploring how this relationship [4][5][6] presents itself in everyday life, from climate refugees seeking safety to extreme events such as wildfires.[7][8][9][10]
