Phototropia 2

When something is positively phototropic it grows towards the light. Trees seeking light to photosynthesise are essential to our planet, and for the oxygen we breathe. My work reflects my concern for protecting our natural systems, trying to understand and avert climate change, protecting the planet, caring and healing. It is a visceral, intuitive response to the process of growing and changing. This work is currently on view at Baker’s@70 Gallery, Fishguard.
