Dissolve Me
Oil on canvas
"'Dissolve Me' is the view from the bottom of the iceberg. It is about ocean plastics, and we are only skimming the surface of the problem rather than solving it…In [my] series, ‘Penchant,’ I am exploring our culture's obsession with consumption and waste by analyzing our relationship with garbage….‘Penchant’ brings to light our relationship with waste in hopes of convincing others that even though the endless social and economic issues are compounding around us, our planet is always of the utmost importance. We as a species must work together to preserve its beauty.”
