EARTH LAW

Earth Law was an exhibition and microsite developed and produced by INTERPRT in collaboration with Polly Higgins and Ecological Defence Integrity (now Stop Ecocide International). The exhibition was held in conjunction with the 17th Assembly of State Parties (ASP) of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and hosted by Museon, museum for science and culture in The Hague and the launch of the concept for a novel test case on ecocide conceived by Polly Higgins. Earth Law consisted of a series of panels on ecocide law, integrated with multimedia works, including a 10-minute animation visualizing the impacts of climate emergency in the Pacific Ocean. This visualization used satellite data and peer-reviewed scientific articles to explore three intersecting aspects of environmental violence: extreme weather events, sea level rise, and coral extinction in order to test new ways of presenting scientific evidence in future legal forums.

The mobile exhibition panels were reproduced and exhibited in Trondheim as part NTNU Ocean Week in collaboration with Trondheim Academy of Fine Art.
