Artist Statement:

This art, using found objects discarded by others was made with the objective of taking a closer look at the disruption of global climate and the subsequent depletion of our water sources due to human interference. Water is of primary importance and basic to our survival. The evidence of our Earth drying up all around us. I feel a visual representation puts this reality front and center, a picture speaks a thousand words. Art emphasizes and brings awareness to this issue.
