Artist Talks: On Climate Change

ArtSpark is excited to present, as part of EcoWest Festival 2019, an inspiring line-up of six diverse NZ artists speaking about their unique creative perspectives on climate change. Gain an insight into provocative and poignant art practices that address our greatest challenge.

Janine Randerson - Media artist and curator, Janine’s important book “Weather as Medium: Toward a Meteorological Art” was published by MIT Press last year.

Charlotte Graham - Prolific West Auckland visual artist, environmental advocate and ambassador for The Kauri Project.

Carol Brown - Choreographer and artistic director, Carol’s work "LungSong" is a collaborative, evolving, performance as research project, asking how artists can activate change.

Taarati Taiaroa and Kathryn Tulloch - Both artists will speak about the genesis and activities of the extraordinary "For the Love of Bees" collaboration seen as an artwork that is activating change now.
