While the science continues to underline the increasing risks posed by climate change, rallying the public to the cause has proved increasingly difficult. A major challenge is finding alternatives to the despair, hopelessness and consequent sense of disempowerment that confronting the realities of climate change can provoke. It is also the case that particular silent aspects of the impact of climate change – for example on the future viability of certain plant species – receive less public and political attention than others, such as catastrophic weather events. Artists have been active in exploring the impact of climate change through a variety of aesthetic strategies in attempts to address these challenges and mobilise complex understandings of the phenomenon. The response of this thesis is to focus on a specific issue and location – endangered Australian plants – and to experiment with a range of different artistic approaches, filtered through the lens of biophilia and beauty. The experimental artwork produced builds and demonstrates a bridge between botanical science, endangered plant species, and art, in relation to climate change. The PhD research makes four substantial contributions. First, it presents a different perspective on the applied use of art as a mode of enquiry into climate change, through creative agency and advocacy on the focused theme of endangered Australian plants. Second, the research explores and assesses alternative methods for making and reconceptualising static drawings into moving images, as a strategy to engage artistically and positively with the negative ecopsychology and ecoanxiety of climate change. Third, newly initiated, collaborative projects with non-arts partners are deployed to enhance audience engagement through the application of drawings. In parallel to this, conventional international and national exhibitions, publications and workshops are also realised as additional contributions to knowledge within different communities. Fourth, the research results in a document which explores a hopeful reconnection with nature through applying and embracing an aesthetic of beauty and meditative mindfulness. A Transmedia Art method is utilised to enhance broader community understanding of Eco Art, using a mindful, practice based research process.
