London (2007) by Thomson & Craighead
New work made for New Climates
In London, Thomson and Craighead appropriate and recontextualize a local news broadcast, offering a glimpse into a future ravaged by climate change. London presents a time when the effects of climate change are no longer speculation, but undeniably real. Is this world a distant fiction, or might we already be experiencing the inconvenient truth? The video’s unsettling revelation acts as a rallying call for action that we cannot afford to postpone.
