Perfect impression printed on Fabriano paper in a total of 100 copies by Sericraft in Turin. Perfect preservation.
We are Marea (Tribute to Hokusai) was born from the collaboration between the artist GEC and the national collective of Friday for Future Italy. GEC listened to the requests of the young people, so each element represented in the sea is a symbol of this present strongly anchored to the past:
- oil barrel: energy production from fossil fuels
- tire and exhaust: unsustainable mobility and transport
- cut tree trunk: deforestation and land use
- bathtub: waste of drinking water
- plastic bottles: production of widely consumed industrial goods
- television: media responsibility
- armchair: political failure
The movement identifies itself with the propulsive force of the wave, in order to generate a change that is now mandatory.
Fridays for Future is a spontaneous and peaceful international movement, which recognizes Greta Thunberg as its prominent figure, but is formally leaderless. Fridays for Future aims, first of all, to keep the attention on the issue of climate change high, in order to transform it into a priority for the international political agenda. Specifically, it calls on governments to eliminate fossil fuels, achieving zero emissions globally by 2050 (in Italy by 2030). Goal: to limit the increase in global temperature to below 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial times.
Part of the proceeds will be used to support the movement, legal expenses, and the maintenance of the Turin headquarters.
