El Gorillaz
Jamie Hewlett Exhibition
Paintings by one of the UK¹s most innovative artists Jamie Hewlett (Gorillaz, Tank Girl, Monkey: Journey to the West) will feature in a climate change exhibition organised by international development agency Oxfam.
Under Water Colour Featuring Jamie Hewlett includes nine watercolours created... by Jamie following a trip he made with Oxfam to Char Atra in Bangladesh earlier this year.
On the trip Hewlett met people trying to raise their homes above the higher flood levels, parents who had lost children to the floods and children who swim to school with their books on their heads, determined not to allow the floods prevent them from getting an education.
Jamie said ³Char Atra is such an idyllic place and it¹s horrific to think of it being simply washed away, devastating the community. I wanted my paintings to be optimistic as well as realistic and I wanted to show what a beautiful place it is. I hope by concentrating on the people and their every day lives that I have given people here in Britain something they can relate to.
³This exhibition shows how climate change is already effecting people around the world but also shows how we can all do something now to stop this from getting completely out of control²
Drawings by some of the children Jamie met showing what climate change means to them will be on display at the exhibition, along with photographs, video and stories collected in Bangladesh by Oxfam.
The exhibition has been timed just weeks before the UN Copenhagen talks in December. There, rich leaders must take the lead in negotiating a deal that prevents dangerous temperature rises and protects the world¹s poor, who are already feeling its effects despite being least responsible.
Oxfam hopes the exhibition will encourage people to join Oxfam¹s climate campaign and march at The Wave in London and Glasgow on December 5 to demand that the UK government pushes for the right deal at Copenhagen.
Limited edition prints of Jamie¹s paintings can be purchased to support Oxfam¹s River Basin programme, which operates in Char Atra and more widely in Bangladesh and Nepal. They are available priced £100 at the gallery during the first weekend of the exhibition or at www.oxfam.org.uk/jamiehewlett
