Breath(e): Toward Climate and Social Justice
September 14, 2024—January 5, 2025
Hammer Museum Los Angeles, CA 90024
Breath(e) was conceived during the height of the global COVID-19 pandemic and America’s racial reckoning in 2020, and as such explores pressing issues related to the ethics of climate justice, while proposing pragmatic and philosophical approaches to spur discussion and resolution. The exhibition strives to challenge and deconstruct polarized political attitudes surrounding climate justice in America and offers new perspectives around land and indigenous rights of nature.
This exhibition centers on environmental art practices addressing the climate crisis and anthropogenic disasters and their inescapable intersection with equity and social justice issues.
