'Framing the Universe
Pale Blue Dot Collective will present a series of works that explore the world around us, from the coastline of Margate to the endless skies of Aotearoa New Zealand.
Through their shared practice, the artists endeavour to bring a new perspective about the detrimental impact of the climate crisis, not only to humanity but to all life and all environments. Framing the impact through the eyes of evolution and the immense time period it has taken for each form of life to arrive at this point, the artists want to create a space for discussion around the damage we are collectively participating in and its universal impact.
The duo have been commissioned by Bodleian Library x Fusion Arts, Oxford, Ramsgate Festival of Sound, Ramsgate, Nablus Festival, Palestine and are creating a sound based exhibition for the Arts Centre Te Matatiki Toi Ora in Aotearoa New Zealand. In 2022, the artists will take residence at BigCi in the Blue Mountains, Australia, as the Environmental Award 2020 winners. Earlier this year the artists took part in the Margate School: Art, Society, Nature: Photography Residency 2021, Margate.'
