Human-induced climate change intensifies the heaviest downpours. More than 70% of the Earth's surface is made up of water, and as the world warms, more water evaporates from oceans, lakes and soils. So when weather patterns lead to heavy rain, even more moisture is available for stronger downpours, increasing the risk and severity of flooding.

For this little boy it might still be fun to play in a heavy rain after a long hot summer day. But what will the future look like for him? What impact will climate change have on him?

db Waterman is a contemporary Dutch artist. In her works she assembles original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil. The variety of resources she is able to use has proved indispensable to her. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially watercolors, was a large victory for the artist. The preparing labor shows through in her collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. 

db Waterman believes that the body of her work is characterized by her skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, she revived this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of her work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.” Her tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
