Plastics generate an immense volume of greenhouse gases because of the fossil fuels used throughout their lifecycle from extraction to production. In turn, the great increase in greenhouse gases intensifies climate change which is now being experienced as temperatures that are too warm and rainfall that is too much or too little for nature to thrive.

My art is created from plastics (discarded bags and single-use containers) to confront us with nature at risk.

Climate change is endangering cherry blossoms which, besides great beauty, symbolize renewal and the fleeting nature of life. Because the blooming season is arriving earlier, before bees and other pollinating insects emerge, their food source and lifespan is decreasing.
