Join us for a talk with Signe Johannessen to ask how artists can use creativity to respond to climate change

Signe Johannessen's art playfully combines personal biography and historical archives. She will discuss her latest project, which draws on Liverpool’s maritime history to bring our attention to the effects of climate change on marine life. This talk will explore how we can use our creativity as a tool to think about climate change. You'll also discover how artists are drawing attention to the effects of climate change and what the solutions are that they might offer to rethink our relationship to nature.

Norwegian artist Signe Johannessen studied at Oslo National Academy of the Arts in Norway and the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, Sweden. Her work spans various mediums including sculpture, video, drawing, participatory practice and performance. Her art practice is also cross-disciplinary, playfully combining personal biography and historical archives.
