presents: At the Tipping Point: Art and ecology from the rooftop of the world
Sponsored by Saraf Foundation and curated by Dr Arshiya Lokhandwala featuring 12 artists from all over the world, the exhibition will open on June 5 at 4 pm!
Framed by the towering Himalayas, this ecological exhibition underscores Nepal’s position as a “ground zero” for climate change. The urgency of the crisis is palpable—melting glaciers threaten global water supplies, erratic weather endangers agriculture, deforestation ravages biodiversity, and rising sea levels imperil coastal life. The extinction of species has upset the delicate balance of oceans, forests, and land, pushing ecosystems to the brink. Through thought-provoking artworks, the exhibition urges collective reflection on the shared consequences of human actions and the urgent need for sustainable stewardship to safeguard our planet.
