Agency

Agency was an online exhibition created for the 2021 Broto: Art+Science+Climate Conference, Greetings, Earthling. The exhibition was curated from an international call for artists whose works reflects the theme of global citizenship. Agency can be defined as the capacity, condition, or state of acting or of exerting power. How can artists act as agents to address the real and imagined boundaries of our planet in relation to the climate crisis? What responsibility do we have as visual thinkers to generate momentum for change? How can art elevate a discussion about borders, civic responsibility, kindness, humanitarianism, justice, and stewardship in the Anthropocene?
