Emma Webster’s work showcases weather events that are simultaneously awesome and terrifying.
While the artist describes these hypothetical vistas as being “kicked out of dreams,” she acknowledges the reality of increasingly frequent unforeseen weather events. As floods, wildfires, tornados, blizzards, and mudslides become commonplace due to a warming planet, humans are forced to adapt to nature’s unpredictability. To Webster, “unreality is a comfortable place to deal with uncomfortable realities.”
