Image Statement: "In Control of out of Control" investigates peoples’ relationships with nature. Driven by curiosity and ambition, we insert ourselves into all environments. Some of us are satisfied with respectful coexistence, some demand to own and restructure, others exhaust the resources and destroy. The issue of sustainability is complex. I do not claim to know the solutions, or dare to judge. However, I can learn and make a difference. The process of using natural dyes and a choice of printing on sustainably produced fabric are the crucial aspects of this piece; they become the work’s conceptual foundation. The triptych is meant to be playful and beautiful yet alarming and disconcerting.
