March 2022, Pollinate asked the artist to join the augmented reality NFT exhibition #MakeUsVisible downtown Manhattan. Based on her reoccurring design called, Solar Symphony, Storm worked with a digital designer in combining her paintings into a virtual moving sculpture. The piece was viewable on an iPhone pinned on Google Maps at a specific location in the West Village and minted online for sale. The art series' mission was to "help audiences envision cityscapes that monumentalize the contributions of individuals who represent a diverse group of voices."
