The lush blues and greens of the first piece have given way to yellows and browns. Our abundance of food and water is being threatened by desertification - the process by which fertile land turns into desert as a result of drought, deforestation, or inappropriate farming.
As the fiery discourse continues, it is slightly more engaged than with the first piece and is much more animated. The lines of dialogue represent an interplay of opposing views, tangled narratives and urgent debates. Yet, the message is one of hope that change can be made.
Technique and Materials: Raw-edge appliqué, cotton fabric, organza, acrylic paint pen, 80/20 batting.
