My art is inspired by environments, weather, science, and climate change. I use it to bring attention to issues surrounding those topics. In winter 2021, I will begin mailing some of my original pieces to elected officials and corporations, along with letters that I’ve written. Sometimes an image—whether it is beautiful, confusing, colorful, abstract, or disturbing—can draw a person’s attention and form a place in their memory better than words can.
