Rugg, Shelley – Greta Knows

Story of the Box

In this year’s piece for the Box Show I present Greta Thunberg surrounded by the gnarly branches of an oak tree, and colors of sky and earth. Although the Climate Crisis has been eclipsed by the Pandemic, we all know that temperatures of over 110 degrees are not In normal, and we are seeing this happening in many places just in the past couple of weeks. So this box is to remind us that addressing climate change is an urgent and vitally important task as we continue on this life path.

As Greta says, “I want you to act as if your house is on fire. Because it is.”
