🖐 The 2024 Bow Seat Ocean Awareness Contest asked youth around the world to “Tell Your Climate Story”—and these young artists responded with raw, resonant works that connect global challenges to personal truths.

Through their pieces, artists like Jamie Song and Chaerin Yoon shed light on the deeply personal and often overlooked impacts of climate change—transforming everyday experiences into compelling calls for change.

Jamie’s “Fragile Harvest” draws inspiration from a surprising source: an apple orchard. What began as a fun outing with friends turned into a wake-up call about the ripple effects of climate disruption. Faced with failing crops and rising food prices, Jamie’s work captures a moment where something as simple as a bite of fruit becomes a symbol of environmental fragility. Her art—a hand reaching for a seemingly perfect apple that’s rotting on the far side—forces us to confront the hidden consequences of climate change in our daily lives.

Chaerin’s “Beneath the Surface” paints a haunting yet hopeful vision of the future. A human skeleton, set against a turbulent sky, is surrounded by vivid marine life—a contrast between destruction and resilience. Her work challenges viewers to reconsider their role in nature: not as dominators, but as stewards. Through her vision, we’re reminded that nature can outlast us, but we still have the power to protect it—if we act now.

Together with dozens of other entries, these handcrafted pieces prove one thing: the climate crisis isn’t distant or abstract—it’s here, it’s real, and it’s personal.
