Climate change and its effect on the world’s ecosystems is one of today’s greatest collective challenges. This exhibition will explore the impact of a changing climate and the acknowledgement that humans are the major cause of the earth’s current transformations. We are seeking artists’ creative responses to climate change and the resulting effects on our environment. We are looking for works exploring themes of extreme weather events: flooding, tropical storms, droughts, desertification; acute resource shortages; vanishing species and human pollution.

Open to sculpture, fiber arts, paintings, drawings, ceramics, site-specific installations, mixed media, photography and printmaking.
