"The first weeks of 2025 have seen catastrophic wildfires locally and
internationally, record global ocean temperatures, and unprecedented coral
bleaching events.
Trump has signed executive orders to exit from the Paris Agreement, and
locally, the Coalition continues its decades-long campaign of climate denial
Species fall swiftly and silently to extinction. The language of bird-song
collapses. For many peoples, and for many species, apocalypse is past tense.
For climate risk researchers Laurie Laybourn and James Dyke, politics
illustrates a doom loop, a political diving-towards apocalypse.
Artists in this year’s Sydney Festival imagine exit strategies from this doom
loop – and dream of taking root in its post-apocalyptic rubble."
