4. Welcome to Changing Climate During this lesson we will be exploring…  Art and climate change Image: http://oncirculation.com/the-basics/climate-change/ But before we do lets reflect on what we learnt in our last lesson…

5. In our last lesson we learn that climate change  Is caused by greenhouse gases trapped in our atmosphere and warming the planet. This is creating warmer oceans, melting polar ice caps causing oceans to rise and causing floods and droughts.  Impacts place, culture, ecosystems, wildlife, animal life and human life. An impact on one species will affect many others, including humans.  Can be improved if we burn less fossil fuels, less fracking, less emissions from factories and cutting back on anything that creates smoke or soot.

6. Let’s start this lesson by learning about “Art and climate change”. Image: http://eden.uktv.co.uk/article/polar-bear-visits-london/

7. David Buckland is an artist, film-maker and writer who is interested in how ice caps and glaciers are melting and changing the landscape around us. Image: http://www.bucklandart.com/art/ice-texts/ http://www.redorbit.com/news/science/1113349727/melting-glaciers-create-noisiest-waters-on-earth-031015/ His art work Burning Ice was inspired by a book called The Future of Ice. The book was based on the author’s trip to the bottom and top of the planet to see ice caps and glaciers. David was inspired so much by this book he travelled to these places himself and projected the words and sentences from this book onto the ice caps and glaciers. The art work Burning Ice talks is telling a story about how these ice caps and glaciers are melting. They are also warnings about how the planet’s landscape will change if the ice and glaciers continue to melting.

8. Bik Van der Pol are an artist couple who are fascinated by land development happening in their city of Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

Bik Van der Pol’s art work called Facts on the ground is a film showing how this new land was created. The camera shows sand flowing from large container ships into the ocean. Other views shows us how huge this new land actually is. The film Facts on the ground show us what material, technology and scale might be needed, if sea levels rise and we begin to loose land, as many places around the world have already.

9. Amy Howden-Chapman is an artist from Wellington and has made many art works about the environment. Info and image: http://amyhowdenchapman.com/ http://www.onedaysculpture.org.nz/ODS_artistdetail.php?idartist=9 One project she created was called The Flood, My Chanting. Amy had placed maritime bells throughout the city, showing parts of the city that could be underwater if a huge flood were to happen or if the ocean to continues to rise. During the project Amy had organised people to ring each bell, filling the city streets with sound. The maritime bells were originally used on ships and rung if there was any approaching danger. The Flood, My Chanting warns us that the impacts of climate change such as flooding and rising water is a very real possibility, and that we need to act with urgency.

10. Daesung Lee is a photographer who photographs people in their homeland. Daesung photos show how culture, history and people are connected to the land they live on. Info and image: http://www.indiphoto.net/#!futuristic-archaelolgy/c1zok http://edelmangallery.com/exhibitions-and-projects/exhibition-pages/2015/daesung-lee.html Some of Daesung’s photographs show traditional Mongolian culture and life on a landscape that is changing because of climate change. His photographs show places that once had green hills and streams of water but are now desert like with many of streams with no water. Daesung’ photos send a message that if the land we live on changes, so to the way we live and the cultural traditions we practice.

11. In 2015, 600 posters were secretly installed by the Brandalism project on the streets of Paris. The project included 82 artists from 19 different countries who made artworks focused on climate change. Posters were placed in areas such as bus stops or along busy roads and footpaths. Let’s take a look a few posters that were part of this project… Info: http://www.streetartnews.net/2015/11/brandalism-600-ad-takeovers-in-paris.html Images: http://www.brandalism.org.uk/

15. Let’s reflect on what we have learnt so far… As we have seen, art can creatively share the impacts of climate change on people, place and our planet.

16. What have we learnt so today? Art can creatively share:  The impacts of rapidly melting ice that raises water levels and has the potential to flood cities around the world.  Ways people are using technology to create new land in place where water is rising.  How we are impacting the world. Image: http://oncirculation.com/the-basics/climate-change/  The impacts of climate change on people’s lives, their culture and traditions and the future of their homeland.

17. Image: http://oncirculation.com/the-basics/climate-change/ We hope over the last few lessons you have enjoyed learning more about climate change, its impacts and how artists use art to share stories about climate change
