Diane Burko work is worldwide recognised. She has achieved many awards such as Independence Foundation Fellowship in the Arts, 2013. INSTAAR Affiliate, University of Colorado Boulder, 2013.WCA Lifetime Achievement Award, Women's Caucus for Art, 2011. and so on. Her work focuses in climate change as well as other topics related to environment.
As well as an artist Diane studied other social sciences such as history which gives her an insight on the past the present and the future.
Her pictures and drawings are documented through pictures and drawings which she takes from helicopter shots and cessnas.
I Have chosen 2 of the series to study: Politics of snow I and politics of snow II.
This pictures and drawings represent the past the present and the future of this environments and the impact of climate change on them.
Glaciers and places where snow is stored are melting due to climate change. Climate change is also been proven to be a natural phenomena that increased its intensity thanks to human activities.
I find this work interesting because it is a warning of something bad happening in the future however I'm optimistic our generation and the future ones have still a chance to rescue our environment but only awarness will save our world.
I have visited a glacier and I am aware of this climate change Im going to post pictures of my visit to a glacier.
