I am pleased to be sharing my work from the series Leviathans in Venice, Italy. This solo show is a series of large narrative paintings and mixed media works created in 2011 in response to Japanese tsunami and the resulting nuclear disaster. The imagery was created by using a mash up of Japanese flood photojournalism juxtaposed with renaissance masterpieces and 18th century etchings of whaling. Whaling is recognized as one of the first super fuels.Sea levels continue to rise all over the world causing change to our environment. The impact of high water in Venice last winter is another example.
