Talk with the winner of COOL STORIES III, Sergio Sotomayor, introduced by Anne-Marie Melster, Co-Founder & Co-Director ARTPORT_making waves.
COOL STORIES FOR WHEN THE PLANET GETS HOT III is the third edition of a video and animation contest on Climate Change by ARTPORT_making waves. The compilation features 19 videos focusing on forests in honor of the United Nations International Year of Forests 2011, and was premiered at the Swiss Architecture Museum in conjunction with Art 42 Basel. The videos comment on the dangers of deforestation and the malaises that follow climate change, but counter eery and ominous moods with humorous commentary and sheer beauty: for instance when we see pieces of wood flying through the air in slow motion. The winner, Sergio Sotomayor, received an artist residency at Guapamacataro in Michoacan, Mexico (guapamacataro.org).
