Climate Migrants

"This poster is dedicated to those in the agricultural/ rural community who have no choice but to move due to the impact climate change had on their land. The original referenced artwork is Changing Pasture (ca. 1880) by Anton Mauve. I found this painting in the Met Collection and I decided to use it because I knew the somber figure and her cows would be a great fit for the concept of climate migrants. The text “We can’t stay here” reflects the theme of this artwork and conveys that the woman is softly talking to her cows. The given theme for this project was how climate change impacts marginal communities. Although I know there are many side effects from climate change on the rural community, I decided to focus on the global warming/ drought part for this poster."
