Artist Statement

Andrea A. Gluckman and Rose Pasquarello Beauchamp explore what it means to be human at this moment in climate change history. Through movement improvisation and visual imagery, each frame represents a unique interpretation of humans’ physical relationship to the environment and various phases of migration. The process investigated symbiotic relationships, giving and taking, moving and being moved and how we use or misuse our earthly home. The concepts of positionality and perspective take different forms in each screen as connection and disconnection interplay through the chaos and complexity of climate migration. The fundamental animal trait of migration unmoors and upends, allowing equal space for grief and promise, requiring a vanishing and reemergence.
