This project began with a month-long on-site engagement in the Netherlands, where we met with artists and experts in the fields of climate science, water management, climate adaptation, and climate policy. We were able to understand the Dutch water story through a historical context, by visiting where the sunken city of Rommerswaal once stood and exploring the Watersnoodmuseum, a museum dedicated to documenting the events during and after the flood of 1953. In addition, our team learned about Dutch climate adaptation strategy through a technical perspective: we met with Maarten Kleinhans, Kim Cohen and Jana Cox at the Geosciences University of Utrecht and watched the Metronome Tidal Simulator simulate river flows, and also visited the Ameland sand suppletion project to witness firsthand how dredging occurs. Following these visits, we workshopped visual representations for the scripts of two videos. We were able to use the time we spent in the Netherlands to more accurately inform our animation. The first video concerns the issue of sand in the Netherlands, discussing the man-made consequences of dredging and sand nourishment along barrier islands. The video questions the sustainability of the extensive efforts made by the Netherlands to maintain its low-lying land against rising sea levels. It highlights issues such as escalating costs, resource demands, ecological harm to the seafloor, intrusion of saltwater, and CO2 emissions from dredging. The second video explores the analogy between the Afsluitdijk, a dike which shuts off the Southern Sea from the North Sea, and Sigmund Freud's model of the human psyche. The video elaborates on the consequences of land subsidence caused by draining peat and clay soil. Subsiding land becomes a metaphor for a Dutch ego in decline. It calls into question man-made solutions, environmental consequences, and psychological concepts. Professor Poldergeist prompts reflection on both short-term benefits and long-term sustainability with this Youtube series. Together, these videos paint a deeper picture of the Dutch climate crisis that we hope to continue to explore.
