Artists affiliated with Climate Imaginaries at Sea showcased their work as part of the Warming Up Art Route. This event was a segment of the annual "We Are Warming Up" festival, taking place at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam from October 30th to November 5th.
There were guided tours, led by Rietveld students, to show all the works of the Art Route. Representing Gerrit Rietveld’s Material Inquiry Studio of Climate Imaginaries at Sea, Müge Yilmaz presented "200 grams," a first impression of her research S.A.L.T.. From the Interspecies Imaginaries studio of the Hogeschool van Amsterdam, Carlo De Gaetano unveiled his project "Queer as the Ocean," and Dorothy Blokland from the Global South Perspectives studio of the Amsterdamse Hogeschool van de Kunsten, facilitated the "Power of Water" workshop.

About Climate Imaginaries at Sea
The Climate Imaginaries at Sea initiative explores potential futures concerning sea level rise through a range of artistic and participatory research methods. This project is a collaborative effort involving the Art & Spatial Praxis research group at the Rietveld Academie, the Lectorate of the Academy of Theatre and Dance at the Amsterdam University of the Arts (AHK), and the Visual Methodologies Collective at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS). These research entities collaborate with ARIAS, an Amsterdam-based platform for artistic research, and a broader network of partners, including Tolhuistuin, the Institute for Sound & Vision, and CoECI – the Centre of Expertise for Creative Innovation.
