Hanne-Lizé Delport, born and based in South Africa, is an artist who loves to build immersive worlds. She studied visual arts and began her practice by creating stop-frame animations. Her works have been exhibited throughout South Africa and Europe. In 2010, Hanne-Lizé began working as a professional in the film industry, painting or sculpting parts of film and advertising sets. In 2018, she began building virtual reality worlds.
Hanne-Lizé's work is nature-inspired and she loves to bring the essence of real-world characteristics into the fantastic worlds she builds. Some of the virtual reality landscapes she created were exhibited across the United States, including at the CES 2022 convention in Las Vegas, where she created an award-winning VR creation. Other virtual reality pieces she worked on were featured in Forbes, exhibited at Burning Man, and presented at conferences on technology across America. Currently, the artist still creates virtual reality worlds, but she also constructs and renders worlds for current visualization platforms.

Trees are connected through mycelium networks that connects them and other plants to each other.
Cables are a conductor or group of conductors that transmit electrical energy or telecommunication signals from one location to another.
Tree roots function as cables and because of the interconnectedness through the mycelium networks they are able to exchange information, water, and energy with each other, effectively connecting the entire forest as a whole and working like some sort of advanced intelligence circuit board. Within forests, the strongest trees can act as "mother trees". They share their energy with younger trees through their roots and the interconnected mycelium network, thereby aiding in the survival and growth of a forest.
