Back to Earth
Back to Earth is Serpentine’s long-term, interdisciplinary, artistic programme responding to the urgent climate crisis. Back to Earth is about change and it is a catalyst to change our approach to the climate emergency. This multi-year project invites over sixty leading artists, architects, poets, filmmakers, scientists, thinkers, and designers to shape their responses to environmental change with the support of Serpentine’s partner organisations and networks.
