As the effects of climate change cut through stratifications of culture, 415 Parts Per Million brings together individual voices of protesters and artists. Physical symbols of outcry from the September 2019 Global Climate Strike are exhibited alongside artworks examining both individual relationships with the environment and the power of protest.
415 Parts Per Million was originally presented by Cool Change Contemporary at Rosny Farm (TAS) for HOBIENNALE from 17 November – 15 December 2019 with the work of Esther McDowell/Yabini Kickett, Danni McGrath, Sophie G Nixon, Dexter Rosengrave and Rachel Salmon-Lomas. An expanded exhibition spanning all galleries at Cool Change Contemporary explores individual artists’ acknowledgements of their relationship to the environment, plus the power of acts of protest (both big and small) in the face of the climate crisis and other social and political issues.
