Artist's Statement:
Having been asked to participate in this exhibition is a once in a lifetime experience and opportunity to help bring awareness of the Treasury of Seed vaults across the world. When one thinks of all the possible effects of what Global Warming and Climate Change can do, human errors such as: genetically modified crops, chemical warfare and natural disasters such as disease, famine, flooding and drought; it's no wonder we are all afraid of what or, if there will ever be a future on this earth for anyone!
I guess it is like being a part of history, bringing awareness and then making a difference for all.
As someone who has a child, I view the world in a different way. Protecting the environment in which we live is like protecting a child and knowing that he will have life and be able to give life to the next generations to come.
The seeds in this case, are gold to the beholder — a life force for future generations and a promise of tomorrow.
