The Climate Movement Should Become a Human Movement
It needs to tap into our emotional life in ways that will link us to material struggles rather than distract us from them.

The exhibition “Nature’s Wild with Andil Gosine”, (@andilgosine.bsky.social) of which I’m proud to be a collaborating artist, uses visual art to explore connections between the environment, sexuality, and sexual justice. This cancellation hasn’t stalled our commitment to sharing this work.

As a participating artist in the now canceled “Nature’s Wild” exhibition at the Art Museum of the Americas, I’m deeply disappointed that the museum decided not to stand by its commitment to supporting artists it once warmly invited into its galleries to challenge the status quo.
