Art and Inundation

This gallery considers creative work that ponders the coming future of sea level rise from climate change, along with the daunting physical and psychological implications such transformation will entail. As the art here reveals, rising seas and their effects are already becoming visible around the world, notably in coastal cities and regions, where millions of people currently reside. Accordingly, a new aesthetics of inundation, immersion, adaptation, and displacement has emerged, flooding the imagination.
