Solastalgia by Kate Shaw (Black Text)
"Solastalgia" by Kate Shaw. Artwork for the ecotopian word Solastalgia, for the book An Ecotopian Lexicon, www.ecotopianlexicon.com. /// As Kimberly Sky Richards writes in An Ecotopian Lexicon, “The term solastalgia was developed by Glenn Albrecht, a conservationist and environmental philosopher who was inspired by the people of the Upper Hunter region of New South Wales, Australia, a site of open-cut coal mining, pollution, and drought. Albrecht observed that residents of the Upper Hunter region seemed to be suffering from the sick landscape, and coined the term solastalgia to describe the sense of powerlessness and grief experienced by people when their homeland is under duress. Solastalgia draws on the Latin word solacium (comfort) and the Greek root algia (pain, suffering, sickness) to convey the anxiety caused by the inability to derive solace from one’s home in the face of distressing events. It is part and parcel of a new abnormal of the Anthropocene, characterized by uncertainty, unpredictability, chaos, relentless change, and deep distress caused by a changing climate, erratic weather, and species extinction.” /// As Kate Shaw writes in her artist statement, “My work imagines solastalgia as a memory—perhaps embedded in human DNA—and depicts a cave in which ‘we’ see through the eyes of an ancestor peering from their shelter onto a landscape we have an uncanny longing for, like a primal homesickness.” /// For more work by Kate Shaw, go to www.kateshaw.org
