Art for Social Change was initiated by Rini Hartman. As any-media artist he worked for many years on the cutting edge of new media, art and idealism.
Working and traveling in Brazil, Ecuador, Kenya and Sierra Leone awakened his deep respect for indigenous cultures, life and the entire organism of living nature, of which we all are part.
At the same time he was aware that rational stories are not enough to change peoples minds, attitudes and behavior. That's where art & popular culture came into the spotlight. To touch people on deeper levels of consciousness.
Art for Social Change is part of DigiCare Foundation and is based in the Netherlands.

CREATIVE LOBBYING
Lobbying is a concerted effort designed to effect influence, typically over government authorities and elected officials. It can consist of the outreach of legislative members, public actions or combinations of both public and private actions.
Here art can become a political act, a conscious effort to facilitate and participate in social change. For we believe that there are creative solutions and various forms of communication that touch people on deeper levels of consciousness. Therefore art can become very effective in public affairs.
No need to say we are very selective in accepting our clients. This part of our work is often strictly confidential.
