Waste Land: A Climate Anxiety Haunted House
Waste Land: A Climate Anxiety Haunted House is a public art project curated by myself, Kate Brooks-Heinimann, and Kay Gallivan . We turned a pre-demolition house into a pop-up haunted house art exhibition themed around climate anxiety. The project was organized by students in the University of Victoria’s Teacher Education Program in collaboration with students at Esquimalt High School. It was open to the public and involved many artists from the Victoria community.
The purpose of Waste Land was, and still is, to raise awareness about the climate crisis in an accessible, creative, and artistic way. Participating artists were encouraged to use reclaimed materials for their work and have it relate to the theme of climate change and climate anxiety.
