An artist discovered the uneasy feelings she had about climate change were akin to mourning. She's channeling those emotions through her art.
“The environmental grief of climate change is often described as grief without end,” she said.“A lot of people will either say, ‘I have never told anyone this because I feel silly,’ ” Cunsolo said. “Or they would say, ‘I could never figure out why I was feeling this way. I never had language.’”
The split is reinforced by society’s tendency to see climate change as a scientific issue, rather than a cultural and political challenge that demands our full humanity — the kind more often explored and addressed through art.

Grief, Worden said, is an ongoing set of tasks — like making space for uncomfortable feelings and adjusting to a new reality — that can be embraced or ignored.“When somebody dies, you don’t stop remembering them or missing them. You create a way forward which has meaning,” she said.And though some may mock it, grief can also be a powerful tool.choked back tears
Instead, she said, “I ended up in a much more confused space, which is a space I’m still in. But it is a more honest space.”
