There's much debate on the causes of climate change. Scientists, politicians and opinion leaders all take the stage to present their vision or ideas. However, cool(E)motion is not focused on the possible causes of climate change. We merely note that the climate is changing, whatever the cause. Let's now focus on what this means for the Arctic. And more specifically, what will happen to traditional culture, when hunters can't trust the ice, when seals disappear and wheater condition deteriorate?

Cool(e)motion urges those in power to focus on the cultural effects of climate changes. We seek attention for this message by creating giant sculptures on ice bergs that will float when spring comes. This way, the sculptural 'hunters' can search for new hunting grounds for people in the Arctic.

Arctic Apocalyps or Global Opportunities?


I just returned to The Hague after a spectacular voyage of discovery throught an unknown world and remote places with stories that the worldwide audience will touch and shock! In the next few days I will publish as much as possible. Next to that I will announce how our art project is caught for eternity. Cheer, Ap
