Janet Laurence has been awarded one of the Falling Walls Science Breakthroughs of the Year for 2023.
Having recently been to the Antarctic and working with scientists there, I feel the need to make this extraordinary and fragile place comprehensible through art. Antarctica's unraveling, through catastrophic climate change, needs to be demystified and brought to a broad audience. Antarctica's future will determine our ways of being on the planet."
Laurence will be in Berlin later this year to attend the Falling Walls Science Summit, discussing the hidden complexities of Antarctic exploration and the need for fostering empathy alongside environmental consciousness.
