In this episode of Art Heals All Wounds, I’m thinking about the transformative power of storytelling. The stories that we tell ourselves shape our actions and decisions. One of the most powerful ways we can move forward is recognizing when a story no longer serves us. The artists in this season are creating new narratives to combat climate change and protect the environment, helping us move from despair to action.

If you’re an artist creating work about climate and the environment, please get in touch through my website. I’d love to share your work on the show!

I’m thinking about the importance of connection. The voicemail from photographic artist J.M. Golding tells her artistic collaboration with Hélène Barrette, where they created a book of lumen prints titled 'Playing with Light'. This story of cross-continent creativity shows the rich possibilities of connection. And from this voicemail, I discovered J.M.’s series of photographs of wildflowers after a devastating fire in California. J.M. will share that story in the upcoming season about Climate and the Environment that starts August 21st.

Lydia Millet explores how writing and storytelling can drive environmental awareness and creative activism.

In this episode of 'Art Heals All Wounds,' I have the pleasure of speaking with the author, Lydia Millet. Lydia’s latest book 'We Loved It All: A Memory of Life' explores themes of interconnectedness, extinction, and climate change. She shares insights into her writing process and the challenges of addressing such monumental issues through storytelling. The conversation also delves into the cultural narratives that have led to environmental degradation and the potential of new, inclusive stories that could inspire change. Lydia’s work is a reminder of the importance of love and protection for all beings as essential components in the fight against mass extinction and climate catastrophe.
