For this series of works, “Collapse”, I recalled my experiences with climate change thus far and confronted my own emotions about it – anxiety, fear, and a sense of foreboding. I hope that these works will foster awareness and a sense of collective responsibility, while they bear witness to this catastrophe of the Anthropocene era. Constriction, suffocation, and bondage of the Earth are represented through use of rope, biodegradable plastics, and heavy fabrics. This work, "Collapse" is about the melting of the world's glaciers.

Meet the Creator
Wescover creator since 2023
I am an artist who specializes in painting and digital art. I am based in northeast Florida and has had a successful career spanning over three decades. My work has been featured in numerous gallery exhibitions and publications across the US and Europe. CV available upon request. I incorporate non-traditional materials and found items in my artwork, allowing me to move beyond the boundaries of a canvas and give my pieces a more sculptural quality. My main sources of inspiration are nature and the effects of the passage of time. I believe they provide a unique perspective on the interplay between the natural and the artificial. My art reflects my passion for exploring the complex relationship between human-made objects and the natural world. I place a strong emphasis on sustainability, sourcing materials for my work from my own home and scavenging from my neighborhood. By transforming discarded items into art materials, I aim to challenge society's perceptions of what is valuable.
