Project Description:
The ocean is being negatively affected by human activities. As an artist, I am using my creativity and imaginative voice to speak out against some of the environmental effects of pollution, nuclear waste, overfishing and our contribution to global warming, that are harmful to the health of our seas. If enough people speak out, there is power in numbers, and I believe in our human ability to transcend our own failings and to wake up to our own blindness. With my sculptures I hope to remind people of the sacredness of the sea and to inspire people towards its protection.
