Exhibition

To create an engaging platform for engagement Project Pressure began commissioning works for its global travelling exhibition titled MELTDOWN. Lead and curated by Project Pressure, world leading artists were sent on expeditions creating scientifically accurate projects related to climate change.

The science-focused approach homes in on using glaciers to illustrate the global scale of climate change and the projects takes you around the on a journey that is illustrative, and poetic way as each artist has a unique take on the subject. MELTDOWN shows scale from the planetary level to microscopic biological impact, and considers humanitarian suffering and more. Together the artistic interpretations in MELTDOWN give visitors unique insights into the world’s cryosphere, its fragile ecosystem and our changing global climate.

MELTDOWN has work from every relevant continent on the planet and leads the viewer on a journey looking at the well-known facts, but also surprises viewers by visualizing those consequences of climate change which go well beyond sea level rise.

MELTDOWN has been shown at numerous prestigious venues around the world, including the Natural History Museum Vienna, Museum of Climate Change Hong Kong and the Nelson Provincial Museum in New Zealand attracting huge audiences with its compelling message.
