»Do they really want to know how we feel?«
Frederick Herrmann
The 1.5 degree target is history and it is becoming personal for those growing up in the climate catastrophe – but how are our youth doing in terms of their future in the climate crisis?
“We, who have to live with the consequences” is how Greta Thunberg, then a 16-year-old climate activist, described her generation’s dilemma to the United Nations. Climate anxiety and solastalgia are establishing themselves as new terms in psychology. This emotionality is becoming more and more palpable within the climate debate, but without receiving sufficient recognition.
The immersive installation titled »Do they really want to know how we feel?« by photographer Frederick Herrmann aims to make this condition of the so-called Gen Z tangible. Contemporary image and video works act as an oversized adaptation of a social media feed on a visual level, while voice messages from the youth allow us to enter the emotional world of those who have to live with the consequences.
For more info, here is an interview with the artist Frederick Herrmann about the topic, his approach, etc.: rights-studio.org
The project is funded by The Rights Studio.
