From the butterfly effect to “think global, act local”, the show looks at the climate crisis as a portrait of the world.
How can we fight global warming when so many familiar tools and seemingly innocuous everyday gestures contribute to polluting the planet? To what extent can a toaster, a hairdryer or a minibar, or even the simple act of buttering a slice of bread, be the cause of natural disasters such as wildfires, sandstorms or tsunamis? We look at the things we take for granted to underscore the fact that the environmental crisis is not a reality that concerns us only from afar, but rather how much, in fact, it is part of our everyday lives.
Time never stands still.
