Back to Nature

I will be using chicken wire, paper, cardboard, books, pottery and glass pieces, tape and wire to sustain the standing figure against the tree.

Our planet is replete with finite resources, but we haven't realized the impact our needs and gratifications are on these. I want to convey a message of man manipulated nature trying to get back to its source of origin.

I am a medically retired Army veteran, reinventing my life after plan A and my new limitations. I am now an Art Major at SSU. Plan B will be helping others with disabilities recover their mental health through art therapy.
