What we do

Cape Farewell has brought together leading artists, writers, scientists, educators and media for a series of expeditions into the wild and challenging High Arctic. Together they have mapped, measured and been inspired by this awesome environment and have endeavoured to bring home stories and artworks that tell how a warming planet is impacting on this wilderness.

Why we do it

Climate change is caused by the way we choose to live in our urban environment and a cultural shift of values could stabilise what is potentially a dangerous situation. Cape Farewell is committed to the notion that artists can engage the public in this issue, through creative insight and vision.
