Eyewitness Shadows of Climate Change

As part of the annual Photoville Festival in New York City, Diversify Photo and the Pulitzer Center will be featuring the work of photographers Sofia Aldinio, Tara Pixley, and Angela Ponce in the exhibition Eyewitness: Shadows of Climate Change.

Photoville is a free, outdoor event with exhibits in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, beginning on June 1, 2024. Throughout the festival, there will be in-person and virtual storytelling events, artist talks, educational programming, and open-air exhibitions in parks and other New York public spaces.

This exhibition of work, presented by the Pulitzer Center and Diversify Photo, explores the intersections of erasure, injustice, and resilience in the face of climate change's relentless advance. These photographs take us to climate-affected communities in the sunny hills of Southern California, fading coastlines in Baja Sur, Mexico, and melting ice caps above Cusco, Peru.

The Eyewitness Photojournalism Grant, which supports visual storytelling by photojournalists from historically underrepresented backgrounds in the media, supported the three featured projects.
