Between Fact and Fabrication: How Visual Art Might Nurture Environmental Consciousness

Abstract: Previous studies have highlighted the communicative limitations of artistic visualizations, which are often too conceptual or interpretive to enhance public understanding of (and volition to act upon) scientific climate information. This seems to suggest a need for greater factuality/concreteness in artistic visualization projects, which may indeed be the case. However, in this paper, we synthesize insights from environmental psychology, the psychology of art, and intermediate disciplines like eco-aesthetics, … Show more

“…In a more-than-human perspective, works such as Spider Web Sonification [SQS * 20] and Biota Beats [KGS * 20] shift the focus from humans to other species in an effort to support the public engagement with science.

“…In art, eco esthetics bridges art with the humanities and social sciences, where this approach formulates alternative perspectives on practice and works of art, especially their influence on the environment (Peck, 2016). Art plays a role in encouraging literacy and building awareness of the environment (Buening et al, 2022;Nnamdi et al, 2013). The creative process in the realm of art actively contributes to providing sound, form, and aesthetic visuality to express problems and concerns over climate and the environment (Thorsen, 2020).…”
