Rising Tide is a fundraising exhibition hosted by Oil Free Wellington featuring works donated by artists from across the community.

Whilst Rising Tide represents the physical phenomenon of rising sea levels and other major effects of climate change, it also represents the rising tide of opposition to fossil fuel extraction and use, and the growing commitment of communities to begin a just transition away from our current systems of exploitation.

These ideas will be explored across a variety of mediums – sculpture, painting, jewellery, graphic design, photography – and proceeds from the sale of this work will go toward Oil Free Wellington’s summer campaign.
