The increase in speed with which we explore the limited resources that fuel both economy and lifestyle, shows not only the dimension of our dependency but also reveals one consistency – a new global race for the remaining resources. Developing nations and regions, until recently 'zones of silence' in our collective memory, will now become the stage for our dependency. What will the cultural impact of climate change look like in developing nations? How could a critical artistic practice broach this issue? And how could it create new contexts and possibilities for a sustainable development?
