08.01.2022 From the Rex... welcome back into the studio Deborah Pollard and team! Deb writes: ‘I Can’t Save You’ is an Intermedial performance that explores the construction and selling of truth pertaining to Climate Change. As celebrities conflate their Oscar winning speeches with calls to action and collapsing icebergs are rendered in breath taking slow motion, does this actually achieve anything? Has Climate Change itself been coopted into our neo-liberal world, leaving us as passive observers gripping tightly to our ‘keep cups’ and recycle bins in the hope that small gestures will somehow contribute to change, but not to much change?
