Atlas of Change

In 2023, a climate group was constituted inside of the European Alliance of Academies and has been working since then about this urgent  issue. Writer Cécile Wajsbrot, composer Iris ter Schiphorst, visual artists Liesbeth Bik and Jovana Popic as well as performer Petja Ivanova and supporter Leon Erhorn were driven by the question:

 

How can the Alliance as a whole, and each art academy or cultural institution in their respective country, come up with new formats to understand, communicate and improve the mitigation of and adaptation to changes required by the climate emergency?

 

The group decided working on an Atlas of Change, collecting records of the changes wherever it is happening, gathering narrative data on adaptation strategies, creating a European map where as many places as possible will be documented. The result is a subjective documentation for climatic changes already happening, as well as for effective solutions. A subjective and artistic evolutive map of Europe with texts, photos, videos, each time linked with a specific place, to awake more and more awareness about the climate issue.
