Artist Statement
My art focuses on the impact of water, air, and light - these are primal elements we all need for life, a need that inextricably links us all. In an ethical world, we (humans and animals) would have free and abundant access to clean and fresh water and air. In an ethical world, we would preserve resources for the generations to come. This artwork celebrates water as a life force. |
