SHINING A LIGHT ON URGENT CONCERNS: "RISING TIDE" EXHIBITION AT ERASMUS HUIS JAKARTA
Discover the powerful visual narrative of 'Rising Tide,' an exhibition that reveals the human impact of rising sea levels and highlights the resilience of communities worldwide
The "Rising Tide" exhibition takes viewers on an artistic journey, illuminating the repercussions of rising sea levels for humanity. Beyond simply portraying one of today's most pressing global challenges, this exhibition stands as a testament to human resilience in confronting adversity. Offering a multi-dimensional perspective on the impacts of rising sea levels, it showcases the unwavering dedication and thorough investigation of Kadir van Lohuizen. Based in Amsterdam, Kadir is renowned for his long-term photography projects, which delve into issues such as the impact of rising sea levels, the diamond industry, and migration in America. As a recipient of numerous awards in the field of photojournalism and as one of the founders of NOOR Images, his work carries significant weight.
Through visual documentation, the "Rising Tide" exhibition vividly portrays how the climate crisis has affected communities worldwide, from Greenland's melting glaciers to the Carteret Islands in Papua New Guinea. While offering a global perspective on the climate crisis, each location where the exhibition is presented adds a unique piece to the narrative. By highlighting local threats and consequences of rising sea levels, it also sheds light on the actions being taken (or not) at the local level to address this pressing issue.
With its deep, illustrative, comprehensive, and straightforward approach, the "Rising Tide" exhibition holds considerable educational value. It encourages viewers to engage with spatial and interactive experiences, prompting them to reflect on their own relationship with the topic. Moreover, the exhibition provides opportunities for educational programs catering to students at various levels, as well as public programming. Collaborating with local and global activists, scientists, media, and politicians, the exhibition creates engaging side programs featuring discussions, panels, and other events.
Now on display in Indonesia, the "Rising Tide" exhibition welcomes visitors from May 22 to August 3, 2024, at Erasmus Huis in South Jakarta. With free admission, it invites everyone to explore inspiring artworks that raise awareness of the importance of environmental conservation.
