Description
The writing on this series is: ‘We abolished slavery, sexism, racism, intolerance – Carbon’s turn’.
Continuing the theme of old fabric or carpet fragments, with writing ‘framing’ the image of daisy chain figures, and looking like stitching. Another piece on my new subject of Climate Change with a very simple message. I am finding it more crucial in this age of distraction and fake news, that art needs to be unequivocal about its meaning. As the experts say, global warming is inevitable, but we can avert human extinction, if we recognise the existential crisis, act now, and all pull together.
