Tick Tock charts global temperature change over 120 years.
As a result of the change in temperature, global sea level rise began around the start of the 20th century. Between 1900 and 2016, the globally averaged sea level rose by 160–210mm.
Measurements showed a rise of 75mm from 1993 to 2017.
Between 1993 and 2018, the melting of glaciers (21%); Greenland (15%); and Antarctica (8%) contribute to 42% of sea level rise. The rate is expected to accelerate during the 21st century.
A conservative estimate of the long-term projections is that each degree (C) of temperature rise triggers a sea level rise of approximately a metre. Sustained global warming of 2–4°C could cause a global average sea-level rise of about 7 metres.
100 year floods are becoming almost annual events.

‘At first glance, unplanned spaces within the urban landscape may seem stuck in a kind of limbo, melancholic & lifeless.
To me they epitomise a space between just before and a moment after. A waymark.
Spaces where the past, present and future merge, something ineffable… a site of subtle awe’.

Kelly McDonald
Kelly McDonald excavates meaning from discarded domestic and industrial objects, melding narratives of home, workshop and motherhood to explore power in its various guises. Her jewellery re-contextualisations traverse tense and complex territories between people, bodies and things.
