"A World Running out of Time as Ocean Life Surrenders"
Mixed Media
20.5" wide x 16.5" high x 2" deep

PROVENANCE: San Luis Obispo Museum of Art (SLOMA), California


This dynamic mixed media artwork explores the complex relationship between nature, time, and humanity’s impact on the planet. Composed of four sculptural elements arranged against a backdrop of Earth’s silhouette, the artwork evokes the urgency of environmental stewardship. A diminishing hourglass incorporating fauna and flora and a conical structure covered in dried seaweed topped by a white weathered flag of surrender, suggests the relentless passage of time and the urgency to act on environmental issues. The rippling blue waves in the foreground underscore the vital role of water as the lifeblood of the planet, while the overall composition invites viewers to reflect on their role in shaping Earth’s future.
