As you Explore the Shire Hall Museum this summer, you’ll encounter works of art that reflect not only the global impact of environmental change, but also the unequal burdens carried by different communities. From rising temperatures to rising inequalities, the artworks along this trail give shape to the stories, struggles, and hopes of those most affected.
More than an art experience, the trail is a call to reflect, connect, and imagine a fairer, more sustainable future. Each piece asks a question, tells a truth, or offers a vision. We invite you to pause and engage — with the land beneath your feet, with the voices rising through the work, and with your own role in the movement for climate justice.
Through the eyes and hands of local artists David Metcalff, Antje Rook, Caz Scott and Morgan Willey the trail reveal stories of resistance, resilience and renewal. It brings past injustices into present focus and offers space to imagine a more equitable, sustainable future.
