In a near future, climate change reaches beyond our predictions and the currency is now in c-dollars. What you are looking at right now is an index of this time. The more you spend, the worse climate gets; but don’t worry you'll get a discount.


CLIMATE DOLLAR

"In a near future, climate change reaches beyond our predictions and the last surviving populations living on earth now pay in c-dollars. What you are looking at right now is an index of this time. The more you spend, the worse climate gets;

but don’t worry you’ll get a discount. 

 What is advertised ? What are the limits of our capitalist system ? What are our priorities and how far can the media go to sell their products in a world falling apart ?

 CLIMATE DOLLAR is a satire that you cry about later, it’s laughing at ignorance and dirty money, it’s choosing to live rather than care, it’s men's disguised fantasies. It reflects what we have normalized or hidden behind your brand new car.

DISCLAIMER : If a discomfort or any sort of familiarity is felt with the following images, it is plausible that this future is not that far from you."

As a woman that makes art it felt urgent and necessary for me to bring environmental and political issues into my work with the idea of transmitting a message. As things are getting more and more violent in the world, the media are witnesses. I have a profound interest in how advertisements are made and how it conveys a message, my goal is to convey my own by playing with a language already present in the system.  My goal is to raise awareness among my audience on the limits of commercializing the planet and its impacts on our lives. This topic is not resolved but rather a whistle-blower on a potential present.
