Friends of the Earth Climate change exhibtion
The changing room gallery, Walthamstow 30th June - 5th July 2008.
Earth, this beautiful and colourful planet of ours, is filled with diversity of animal and plant life. The canvases celebrate the natural world around us even as reminders of what we do to it intrude. Seen from space we begin to truly understand that we share this single planet with all else on it. That we share not only dangers but also the possibility of a united world. We hold the Earth and all our futures within our own hands.
Blue sky untouched by clouds comments on the atmosphere, aeroplane trails as new clouds and the use of our airspace as well as the beauty of the skies.
The clash of the elements – Worship of Power is about the destructive potential of our generation of power by fossil fuels. The glimmer of the setting sun could be a sign of hope or the last sight of the light as the world plunges into darkness.
