Anish Kapoor's Climate Accountability Project
British sculptor Anish Kapoor debuted a project, "BUTCHERED", in the North Sea, challenging viewers to consider the damage of climate change.
The project, a 1,000-square-foot work, was composed of seawater, beetroot powder, and food-grade dye, executed in collaboration with seven climbers working with Greenpeace.
Positioned against the backdrop of rising global temperatures and corporate profits, "BUTCHERED" challenged viewers to consider who pays for the damage of climate change.
- The project took the form of pigment sprayed down the side of a gas rig owned by Shell.
- Greenpeace climate campaigner Philip Evans collaborated with Kapoor on the project.
