Award 2021
Welcome to the Social Art Award 2021 – Online Gallery!
We are grateful for the many inspiring contributions from artists around the world. The selected works reflect a broad spectrum of contemporary social art practices and explore new relationships between humans, nature, and technology. They address themes such as ecological regeneration, climate justice, sustainable futures, social resilience, and more-than-human perspectives.
Below you will find the submissions from the Social Art Award 2021 – New Greening edition that passed the initial jury round. The Online Gallery offers public visibility to these works and encourages dialogue around their ideas and approaches; it does not replace the final jury decision.
Thank you to all artists for sharing your visionary and committed work. We invite you to explore the gallery and engage with the perspectives shaping New Greening.
H2CO3
Jessica Carvajal
This piece reflects the reaction of the natural dissolution of daily CO2 emissions by the oceans, which forms carbonic acid H2CO3, this reaction thus increases the concentration of the hydrogen ion, which is responsible for the decrease in the pH of the ocean. This situation contributes to the warming of the oceans, the dissolution of calcium structures such as coral reefs, and radical changes in the physiology, feeding, and reproduction of marine species.
