Open conversation about global warming. The visual narrative of this painting is about communities worldwide that are feeling the impacts. The narrative emphasizes the catastrophic and dire consequences of climate change, often focusing on a “doom and gloom” outlook that can leave people feeling paralyzed rather than empowered to act.  However, recent efforts focus on creating more hopeful and action-oriented narratives by highlighting solutions, fostering agency, and telling relatable stories of diverse people. Today’s, collective actions have become essential.
