climate feelings no. 1
FEBRUARY 2025Watercolor and gouache on cold pressed watercolor paper, 12 inches x 12 inches
The existential threat of climate change shapes and impacts our physical world and communities - what is less acknowledged is the impact it has on our psychological and emotional realms. Working in the climate sector for the past decade of my career, I've seen this in my colleagues, my friends, and in myself. Climate anxiety, climate dread - the overwhelming weight of feeling responsible for sustaining the future of our communities resting on our individual shoulders. It can feel isolating, paralyzing, and hard to see the pathway out.
