I consider it my life's mission
0
12634
3219
Smatram svojom životnom misijom
00:15
to convey the urgency of climate change through my work.
1
15877
3638
prenijeti ozbiljnost klimatskih promjena kroz svoj rad.
00:19
I've traveled north to the Arctic to the capture the unfolding story
2
19961
3741
Putovala sam na sjever do Arktika, kako bih zabilježila razvoj priče
00:23
of polar melt,
3
23726
1479
o otapanju polarnog leda
00:25
and south to the Equator to document the subsequent rising seas.
4
25229
3912
i južno do Ekvatora kako bih dokumentirala nadolazeći porast razine mora.
00:29
Most recently, I visited the icy coast of Greenland
5
29903
3690
Nedavno sam posjetila zaleđene obale Grenlanda
00:33
and the low-lying islands of the Maldives,
6
33617
2866
i otoke Maldiva na niskoj nadmorskoj visini,
00:36
connecting two seemingly disparate but equally endangered
7
36507
4477
povezujući dva naoko različita, no podjednako ugrožena
dijela našeg planeta.
00:41
parts of our planet.
8
41008
1467
00:43
My drawings explore moments of transition, turbulence
9
43504
6043
Moji crteži istražuju trenutke prijelaza, nemira
00:49
and tranquility in the landscape,
10
49571
2714
i spokoja pejzaža,
00:52
allowing viewers to emotionally connect
11
52309
3482
omogućujući gledateljima da se emocionalno povežu
00:55
with a place you might never have the chance to visit.
12
55815
2715
s mjestom koje možda nikad nećete imati priliku posjetiti.
00:59
I choose to convey the beauty as opposed to the devastation.
13
59185
4394
Izabrala sam prenijeti ljepotu nasuprot uništenju.
01:04
If you can experience the sublimity of these landscapes,
14
64230
4432
Ako možete doživjeti uzvišenost ovih pejzaža,
01:08
perhaps you'll be inspired to protect and preserve them.
15
68686
3613
možda će vas to inspirirati da ih zaštitite i čuvate.
01:13
Behavioral psychology tells us that we take action
16
73545
3367
Bihevioralna psihologija nam govori da poduzimamo mjere
01:16
and make decisions based on our emotions above all else.
17
76936
4126
i donosimo odluke temeljene, iznad svega, na emocijama.
01:21
And studies have shown that art impacts our emotions
18
81497
3436
A istraživanja su pokazala kako umjetnost utječe na naše emocije
01:24
more effectively than a scary news report.
19
84957
3327
učinkovitije od nekih zastrašujućih vijesti u medijima.
01:29
Experts predict ice-free Arctic summers
20
89193
3444
Stručnjaci predviđaju arktička ljeta bez leda
01:32
as early as 2020.
21
92661
2502
već od 2020.
01:35
And sea levels are likely to rise between two and ten feet
22
95521
4167
A razine mora će se vjerojatno podići između 60 i 300 centimetara
01:39
by century's end.
23
99712
1326
do kraja stoljeća.
01:42
I have dedicated my career to illuminating these projections
24
102364
4676
Posvetila sam svoju karijeru rasvjetljavanju tih predviđanja
uz pomoć dostupnog medija,
01:47
with an accessible medium,
25
107064
2064
onoga koji nas pokreće onako kako statistika ne bi mogla.
01:49
one that moves us in a way that statistics may not.
26
109152
4454
01:54
My process begins with traveling to the places
27
114684
2679
Proces započinjem putujući na mjesta
01:57
at the forefront of climate change.
28
117387
2299
najviše pogođena klimatskim promjenama.
01:59
On-site, I take thousands of photographs.
29
119710
2962
Na licu mjesta stvaram na tisuće fotografija.
02:02
Back in the studio,
30
122696
1243
Povratkom u atelje
02:03
I work from both my memory of the experience and the photographs
31
123963
4260
radim na osnovi sjećanja na iskustvo te na osnovi fotografija,
02:08
to create very large-scale compositions,
32
128247
2255
kako bih stvorila kompozicije velikih formata,
02:10
sometimes over 10 feet wide.
33
130526
2140
ponekad široke i preko 300 centimetara.
02:13
I draw with soft pastel, which is dry like charcoal, but colors.
34
133412
4492
Crtam mekim pastelama, koje su suhe poput ugljena, ali u boji.
02:18
I consider my work drawings but others call them painting.
35
138456
3298
Svoja djela smatram crtežima, iako ih drugi nazivaju slikama.
02:22
I cringe, though, when I'm referred to as a "finger painter."
36
142203
4021
Ipak, nelagodno mi je kada me opisuju kao "slikaricu prstima."
02:26
(Laughter)
37
146248
1118
(Smijeh)
02:27
But I don't use any tools
38
147390
2305
Ne koristim nikakvo oruđe
02:29
and I have always used my fingers and palms
39
149719
2477
i oduvijek sam koristila svoje prste i dlanove
02:32
to manipulate the pigment on the paper.
40
152220
2426
kako bih upravljala pigmentom na papiru.
02:35
Drawing is a form of meditation for me.
41
155990
3586
Crtanje je za mene vrsta meditacije.
02:40
It quiets my mind.
42
160354
1627
Smiruje mi um.
02:42
I don't perceive what I'm drawing
43
162437
1807
Ono što crtam ne doživljavam
02:44
as ice or water.
44
164268
1373
kao led ili vodu.
02:45
Instead, the image is stripped down
45
165665
2462
Umjesto toga, prizor je ogoljen
do najosnovnijeg vida boje i oblika.
02:48
to its most basic form of color and shape.
46
168151
3689
02:52
Once the piece is complete,
47
172964
1342
Kada je djelo gotovo,
02:54
I can finally experience the composition as a whole,
48
174330
3136
napokon mogu doživjeti kompoziciju kao cjelinu,
02:57
as an iceberg floating through glassy water,
49
177490
2562
poput ledenjaka koji pluta staklastom vodom,
ili val obavijen pjenom.
03:00
or a wave cresting with foam.
50
180076
2690
03:03
On average, a piece this size takes me about,
51
183884
3922
U prosjeku, za djelo ove veličine potrebno mi je oko,
03:07
as you can see, 10 seconds.
52
187830
1690
kao što vidite, 10 sekundi.
03:09
(Laughter)
53
189544
1780
(Smijeh)
03:11
(Applause)
54
191348
3523
(Pljesak)
03:15
Really, more like 200 hours, 250 hours for something that size.
55
195336
4456
U stvari, oko 200 sati, 250 sati za nešto te veličine.
03:19
But I've been drawing ever since I could hold a crayon, really.
56
199816
2982
Crtam, doslovno, još od kada sam mogla držati voštane boje.
03:22
My mom was an artist, and growing up,
57
202822
1913
Moja majka je bila umjetnica, odrastajući,
03:24
we always had art supplies all over the house.
58
204759
2486
uvijek smo imali zalihe slikarskog pribora po kući.
03:27
My mother's love of photography
59
207269
2553
Majčina ljubav prema fotografiji
03:29
propelled her to the most remote regions of the earth,
60
209846
3535
vodila ju je do najudaljenijih predjela Zemlje,
03:33
and my family and I were fortunate enough
61
213405
2406
a moja obitelj i ja smo imali sreću
03:35
to join and support her on these adventures.
62
215835
2701
pridružiti joj se i biti uz nju u tim avanturama.
Jahali smo na devama u Sjevernoj Africi
03:39
We rode camels in Northern Africa
63
219139
2708
03:41
and mushed on dog sleds near the North Pole.
64
221871
3047
i tjerali sanjke koje vuku psi, blizu Sjevernog pola.
03:45
In August of 2012, I led my first expedition,
65
225871
4196
U kolovozu 2012. predvodila sam svoju prvu ekspediciju,
vodeći grupu umjetnika i učenjaka do sjeverozapadne obale Grenlanda.
03:50
taking a group of artists and scholars up the northwest coast of Greenland.
66
230091
4514
03:56
My mother was originally supposed to lead this trip.
67
236232
2890
Prvotno je moja majka trebala predvoditi ovo putovanje.
Ona i ja smo bile u ranim fazama planiranja,
03:59
She and I were in the early stages of planning,
68
239146
2715
04:01
as we had intended to go together,
69
241885
2562
budući smo namjeravale ići zajedno,
04:04
when she fell victim to a brain tumor.
70
244471
2675
kada je oboljela od tumora na mozgu.
04:07
The cancer quickly took over her body and mind,
71
247812
3997
Rak je brzo zahvatio njezino tijelo i um
04:11
and she passed away six months later.
72
251833
2547
te je preminula šest mjeseci kasnije.
Tijekom mjeseci njezine bolesti,
04:15
During the months of her illness, though,
73
255110
1985
njena posvećenost ekspediciji nije jenjavala i obećala sam
04:17
her dedication to the expedition never wavered, and I made a promise
74
257119
5500
04:22
to carry out her final journey.
75
262643
1865
da ću ostvariti njeno zadnje putovanje.
04:25
My mother's passion for the Arctic
76
265374
3143
Strast moje majke prema Arktiku
04:28
echoed through my experience in Greenland,
77
268541
3373
našla je odjeka kroz moje iskustvo na Grenlandu
04:31
and I felt the power
78
271938
2976
i osjetila sam snagu
04:34
and the fragility of the landscape.
79
274938
2550
te krhkost tog pejzaža.
04:38
The sheer size of the icebergs
80
278738
2660
Sama veličina ledenjaka
04:41
is humbling.
81
281422
1404
ulijeva strahopoštovanje.
Ledena polja vrve pokretom i zvukom,
04:43
The ice fields are alive with movement and sound
82
283168
3423
04:46
in a way that I never expected.
83
286615
2137
kako nikada ne bih očekivala.
04:49
I expanded the scale of my compositions
84
289284
2248
Proširila sam razmjere svojih kompozicija,
04:51
to give you that same sense of awe that I experienced.
85
291556
4761
kako bih vam pružila taj isti osjećaj strahopoštovanja koji sam iskusila.
Ipak, iako je veličina leda očita,
04:57
Yet, while the grandeur of the ice is evident,
86
297021
3695
05:00
so, too, is its vulnerability.
87
300740
1936
takva je i njegova ranjivost.
S našeg broda
05:03
From our boat,
88
303042
1215
05:04
I could see the ice sweating under the unseasonably warm sun.
89
304281
5364
mogla sam vidjeti orošeni led pod neprirodno toplim suncem.
05:10
We had a chance to visit many of the Inuit communities in Greenland
90
310940
3563
Imali smo priliku posjetiti mnoge zajednice Inuita na Grenlandu,
05:14
that now face huge challenges.
91
314527
2830
koje se trenutno suočavaju s ogromnim izazovima.
05:17
The locals spoke to me of vast areas of sea ice
92
317381
3316
Mještani su mi govorili o ogromnim područjima morskog leda,
05:20
that are no longer freezing over as they once did.
93
320721
2686
koja se više ne zamrzavaju kao nekada.
05:23
And without ice, their hunting and harvesting grounds
94
323431
3078
A bez leda, njihovo tlo za lov i žetvu
05:26
are severely diminished,
95
326533
1762
je ozbiljno smanjeno,
05:28
threatening their way of life and survival.
96
328319
2841
ugrožavajući njihov način života i opstanka.
05:32
The melting glaciers in Greenland
97
332616
1895
Glečeri koji se tope na Grenlandu
05:34
are one of the largest contributing factors to rising sea levels,
98
334535
4344
jedan su od najvećih čimbenika koji doprinosi dizanju razine mora,
05:38
which have already begun to drown
99
338903
2116
a to je već počelo zahvaćati
neke otoke svijeta koji imaju najmanju nadmorsku visinu.
05:41
some of our world's lowest-lying islands.
100
341043
2830
05:44
One year after my trip to Greenland, I visited the Maldives,
101
344942
3516
Godinu dana nakon mog puta na Grenland posjetila sam Maldive,
najnižu i najravniju državu na cijelom svijetu.
05:49
the lowest and flattest country in the entire world.
102
349145
3207
05:52
While I was there, I collected images and inspiration
103
352752
4033
Dok sam bila tamo skupljala sam slike i inspiraciju
05:56
for a new body of work:
104
356809
1701
za novu cjelinu radova:
crteže valova koji zapljuskuju obalu jednog naroda,
05:59
drawings of waves lapping on the coast of a nation
105
359072
4033
koji bi tijekom ovog stoljeća mogao biti potpuno pod vodom.
06:03
that could be entirely underwater within this century.
106
363129
4154
06:09
Devastating events happen every day
107
369484
3543
Događaji razaranja događaju se svakodnevno,
u svjetskim i u osobnim razmjerima.
06:13
on scales both global and personal.
108
373051
3248
06:16
When I was in Greenland,
109
376844
1263
Dok sam bila na Grenlandu,
prosipala sam majčin pepeo usred leda koji se otapao.
06:18
I scattered my mother's ashes amidst the melting ice.
110
378131
3914
06:22
Now she remains a part of the landscape she loved so much,
111
382743
5087
Sada je ona trajni dio pejzaža koji je toliko voljela,
06:27
even as it, too, passes and takes on new form.
112
387854
4087
čak i ako on sam nestane i preuzme novi oblik.
Među mnogim darovima koje mi je majka dala,
06:33
Among the many gifts my mother gave me
113
393095
2768
06:35
was the ability to focus on the positive,
114
395887
3000
je i sposobnost koncentriranja na pozitivne strane,
06:38
rather than the negative.
115
398911
1523
a ne na negativne.
Moji crteži slave ljepotu onoga što svi mi riskiramo izgubiti.
06:41
My drawings celebrate the beauty of what we all stand to lose.
116
401083
6081
06:47
I hope they can serve as records of sublime landscapes in flux,
117
407845
5794
Nadam se da će moći poslužiti kao zapisi uzvišenih pejzaža u pokretu,
06:53
documenting the transition and inspiring our global community
118
413663
4622
bilježeći prijelaz i inspirirajući globalnu zajednicu
06:58
to take action for the future.
119
418309
2118
da počne raditi za budućnost.
Hvala vam.
07:01
Thank you.
