ESI Creative Exchange - Boatbarrow

An interactive exhibition exploring how to live when sea levels rise

In July 2018 seven families took part in ‘Retreat’, a creative residency to imagine and design how to live when lives are radically affected by climate change. They came together as climate refugees fleeing their flooded homes to gather in a holding camp, where they had to reinvent ways to meet their basic needs and figure out how provide things they had taken for granted.


Event details

BOATBARROW exhibits the result of their collective making: a self-sufficient, amphibious igloo that now serves as a mobile exhibition space and catalyst for creative adaptation. Join us for its first voyage at the Environment and Sustainability Institute on 15 November in an evening of play, creative inquiry and conversation - for young and old.
