HOPE
An art installation for 4GameChangers
May 14-16, 2024
Vienna, Austria
HOPE is a series of surrealistic paintings representing each of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The paintings are inspired by the Scapini Tarot deck, both in look and content, the poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came" by Robert Browning, and by the enduring mystical spirit of the American lighthouse.
Embedded in each painting, using Artivive's transformative tech, are animations by Angela Ho, music by Andy Ferrell Magee, and links to innovative Harvard student social impact ventures, revealing a deeper divination.
Like with the Tarot, interact with each painting while focusing your thoughts on the specific challenge that SDG represents. If a particular idea or image holds your attention, note it and allow that resonance to guide your action and your engagement.
The final SDG, the 17th, represents partnerships. Here, you will have the opportunity to share your thoughts, add your energy, suggest directions for new art, sign your name to a social impact pledge, and take a charm to hold while on your journey.
