Insert_Here – Eve Mosher
Artist’s statement: “Insert__Here” is an interactive public art project conceived by Eve Mosher and realized with 350.org. The project capitalizes on community awareness of place and optimism around climate change solutions. The project invites people to place bold yellow “Insert_Here” arrows in locations in their community where they want to “insert” a climate change solution. For example “Insert bike lane Here” “Insert community garden Here”, “Insert solar panels Here”, Insert trees Here”. By placing these arrows along people’s daily migratory paths, individuals and groups can share their proposed solutions with the greater community.
