Artists begin to address climate change as subject matter

"Artists don't give answers; they don't operate within a structure of credentials, reinforced by formal peer review. They explore nuance and subjective experience and accept multiple answers to the same question. And that's precisely the point."

Just as artists responded to war and terror, so they are to climate change. In doing so they offer us visions of what could be. It is still open to interpretation. That's the beauty and frustration of art.

Be sure to check out the Precipice Alliance as well (also via SEED).
