David Tim was born in Montreal, Canada. He’s a printmaker and ceramicist whose work represents the pursuit of harmony between the individual and the community. HIs wood carving explores the relationship between the public and private sphere, as well as the rhythm within order and chaos.

ClimateTruth.org is a community of more than 170,000 people that organize online to combat the denial, distortion and disinformation blocking bold action on climate change. Since 2012, they have been pushing public officials and institutions to cut ties with the polluter front-groups and other vested interests obstructing climate solutions.

 

CultureStrike, in collaboration with Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative, has forged partnerships between artists and frontline environmental justice organizations to create a provocative, limited-edition art print portfolio, called We are the Storm, that highlights the urgency of climate change on these communities.

 

The portfolio draws inspiration from the powerful work of grassroots groups that are championing creative and community-based solutions to combat climate change. The artworks bring voices from frontline communities that are being the most impacted by climate change and destructive environmental practices, to the forefront of the climate change discussion.

Portfolio contains 23 12″x18″ digital and screenprints from the following artists:
