"The Flow of New Voices 1" Drawing

In my artistic activity, I re-examine own responsibility towards social and environmental events that surround me, and research about possibilities of overlapping individual and collective experiences. The focus of my work is on migration-transition and climate change narratives. Within them, I’m materializing a trigger that will turn on and amplify dominant characteristics in spectators, such as altruism, empathy, kindness and community feeling. As an elementary school art teacher, I can see the emotional burden of climate change in children. Talking to younger generations about climate changes narratives, gives a fresh perspective on the absurdity of doing so little about the climate emergency, highlighting the troubling disconnection between what politicians say and what they do in reality.We have to find a way to face our vulnerability, painful truths, collective denial, grief and loss, developing the emotionally informed and sustainable actions desperately needed.
