Artist Statement:
Cascading Memorials offers a public space to mourn the devastatingly rapid changes to terrestrial environments due to the combined effects of climate change and urbanization. Memorials to specific sites are designed to capture the viewer’s attention, ignite curiosity, and provide questions for reflection. The work provides a vitally important public space to grieve the immensity of our losses. Having opened our hearts, this grief can inform the values by which we design technologies and build socio-political institutions that insure sustainable futures where all species may flourish. ruthwallen.net/cascade.html
