Transformative Change

Transformative Change, Fine Art
Transformative Change
Our oceans are vital to the livelihood of the planet as we know it, yet they are being pumped full of plastic, chemical waste, and carbon dioxide. This painting explores the negative impact of these destructive behaviors and also illustrates the transformative change that must happen in order to successfully regulate such pollution and save our oceans. The transformative nature of this change is emphasized by the metamorphosis of the pollution documentation and environmental regulations into butterflies. Likewise, the bird with the olive branch represents the peace and justice required for this transformation, because environmental harm is inextricable from social justice.
