"Refractions," Lucy Fandel & Isabella Leone, 2025

In a time of fierce debate and high stakes, ANGLES OF CONSEQUENCE invests in the power of the arts by inviting artists to make works with reflected sunlight.

We invite professional artists to make work in dialogue with key climate sites, and support their work through research, performance design and management.

Supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, the LePARC Performing Arts Research Cluster at Concordia University, and the efforts of a group of artists and academics, ANGLES OF CONSEQUENCE seeks accountability and visibility for organizations with outsized impacts on our climate– both positive and negative. 

"It kind of made you have that new perspective on how strange we're acting, how you have to go around the corner and go to places you don't usually go, that you just drive past or fly over, doing all these contortions to not look at what we're doing to our planet."
