Artists Melissa Koch, Anna McKee, Juliette Ripley Dunkelberger, and Suze Woolf

Our climate crisis produces symptoms as varied as heat and drought, disappearing ice, sea-level rise, habitat destruction, and species extinction.

These four artists’ works represent a kind of confluence – a joining of concerns around critical climate issues. Their explorations of ice sheet retreat, forest fires, insect outbreaks, and threats to water evoke awe as well as anxiety.

The artists are moved by both a sense of sacred trust and a belief in scientific method. They want people to choose healing over harm – and be inspired to act. Each artist has put together a set of actions that anyone can take to help address the climate crisis.
