This artwork was a bit of an experiment. I had a color pallet in mind and that was it, no defined design. I had a new materials and techniques I wanted to try and through that a pretty clear idea was created for me.
To me, this is an abstract, birds-eye-view of a map of the world. Recently I’ve developed an urge to travel. I want to go on a ‘safari’ all around the world, to research a range of different Wildlife and Habitat conservation efforts in the hope that MGRA can in some way contribute to their efforts, through my art. I’ve already got a close eye on a particular sea turtle conservation group…
I’ve travelled a little but I still feel quite sheltered from the rest of the world and I’m sure that even within my lifetime, I wont get to see it all, but I’m going to try.
This is ‘Travellers Graveyard’, my map of the world.
