Crafting a shared vision for New Brunswick's energy future
Mario Doiron, an artist in residence with the Conservation Council’s From Harm to Harmony program, wanted to use art to help New Brunswickers express their hopes for a future powered by renewable energy.
Through his From Harm to Harmony project, Mario’s art project brought together people from different communities to paint four 4×4-foot panels illustrating their thoughts on energy policy and what matters to them. Those panels were then combined to form an 8×8-foot mural, showing what matters to New Brunswickers—clean energy and the future of our communities.
Mario’s project sends a message to decision-makers: New Brunswickers care about climate change, and we want leaders who do too.
Inspiring hope and resistance against environmental harm
Through her From Harm to Harmony project, poet and artist Shoshanna Wingate wanted to remind people that hope and resistance go hand in hand.
Through writing exercises and poetry, Shoshanna encouraged people to “rewrite the story” by imagining a province where clean energy is prioritized, the environment is protected and we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past. Her project teaches us how to resist harmful environmental practices, like fracking, while holding onto hope for a better future.
Shoshanna’s project sends a message to New Brunswickers: Hope and resistance are the fuel that drives the feeds social and environmental progress.
These New Brunswick citizens and local artist are using their skills to have a greater impact than just one vote.
