COP21

Place to B, Paris. 2015

Invited by the Civil Society branch of the Paris Climate Conference, I created an artistic and social experience.

Scientists, activists, and citizens gathered around a symbolic campfire.

For three hours, everyone shared the personal, emotional moments that pushed them into climate action. Common threads emerged, forming a meta-narrative of the tipping point.

From there, we explored how to invent a rite of passage toward climate awareness for the wider public.

The experience was later adapted for the NGO Engage, and at Pioneer Works Museum in Brooklyn, in collaboration with artist Carmen Bouyer.
