Climate Change Through Art
Week 1
Placed by Samantha Ameztoy 2017/Sep/28
“The observation of nature and meditation have generated art.”
Ciceron
Following Ciceron, during this first week we explore the concept of climate change through plastic art.
We start proposing the following artists and collective groups: Captain Boomer, Wilmar Orlando Cosme Calzada and Anthony Quinn. Then, students add the artists that they want to discover and research.
Our production for this week is a digital collage. This tool promotes a versatile medium of expression full of freedom to employ different shapes and procedures. Moreover, it is an artistic expression that allows us to make a “visual summary” of what we investigate and reflect upon and, hopefully, inspire others to start investigating about climate change in our country, Argentina.
