Wednesday, September 20.
Hello. You will be all too aware that what was for so long referred to as climate change has recently, and necessarily, come to be known as the climate emergency. And that is because that is exactly what this is—but emergencies need not be so paralyzing. Everyone has their part to play, whether your proverbial Jo Average, or those at the summit of politics and activism, the sciences, or indeed, the arts.
For Climate Week NYC, Automattic will be joining forces with artist and activist Ana Teresa Fernández for just that purpose. Today, September 20, we will be hosting a panel discussion in our Noho Space. Also joining us will be Cristina Gnecco (Co-Founder of HOPE Hydration) and Whitney McGuire, Esq. (Director of Sustainability at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum) in exploring how art and innovation can catalyze positive change, inspiring us to take newfound insights into the world and encourage collective action.
The panel will be held against the backdrop of Ana Teresa Fernández’s provocative series, Under Pressure—a multi-disciplinary work comprising video, photography, paintings, and sculpture that engages with questions of responsibility and response in relation to the climate emergency and rising sea levels.
You can tune in to the livestream of the Under Pressure panel discussion on September 20 at 6:45 PM ET, right here on Tumblr.
