Adapt and Survive

Watch it - its weirdy art film about climate change... Artists statement... Our climate has always changed, but now those changes are happening over a human lifespan. In order for our species to survive in a way and in a world we recognise, we have to adapt. Human induced climate change is one of the leading global issues of our time - affecting every aspect of life on earth. The consequences of this change are already dire for Pacific island nations, with more negative projections stating that some of them could become uninhabitable within a generation. The works in this exhibition are an attempt to explore the causes and effects of climate change and human imposed environmental degradation and seek to bring an awareness of how these issues reverberate around cultural loss and societal change within the Pacific islands region. The works reference current threats from climate change and parallel this with the region’s past use as a testing ground for destructive and constructive technologies and how it has lived with and survived these uses. The artist’s personal experience growing up in the cold war is also reflected.
