Specialy attached to Uummannaq, Greenland, (with my wife
as a doctor for this large district) and after a period
of 13 months of common residence in 2006 /07 we got to understand
the dramatic consequences over nature and people, provocated
by climate changes. Coming both in Uummannaq from 2003 this
evolution is getting each year faster and more spectacular.
The reverberation of these changes will soon dangerously
have influence over the balance of this very harmonious
little hunters society. Health, population psychological
statment, people social evolution dependents of too quick
changings ressources, concentration at school for the children
a.s.o,..... have been our daily worry conjugate to the desire
to find new way by leading actions in our respective professional
activities.
Teaching art to Uummannaq children is a positiv medium
to stimulate their creativity, their concentration at school,
to introduce other school matters into art classes or happenings,
to sharp their “ecological” leitmotivs and at
least to give to these children a chance to promotionate
their ideas out of their town and out of Greenland. We go
on, working about new ideas, projects and actions that children
are delagated to democraticly treat artisticaly. It is giving
them a chance to be heard for a better future..............
