CLIMATE CRISIS
DISASTER SERIES
In the retro style of classic disaster movies of the '70s, but commenting on the serious subject of climate change, these collages tackle themes of wild weather patterns: extreme hot weather droughts, and the effects of a waterless environment on all living beings including animals. Global warming causing melting glaciers and tsunamis. Wilds storms causing widespread blackouts. But as a glimpse of hope, VEGAN OASIS offers a way forward, to provide a safe environment and sanctuary to all living beings.
