About this poster
The piece is called “Procession” and here are a few words about it. I used my own words for this and I’m no writer, just sayin’.
Many of us have been to the ocean and found ourselves completely humbled and in awe of this vast, magical place. There’s a sadness in knowing something is wrong and the ocean is struggling, but we also take pleasure in the beauty of it, and celebrate the creatures that dwell there. I wanted to explore that dichotomy in my piece. I stumbled on the idea of a procession, which can be both a funeral or a celebratory parade. So, depending on the viewer’s mood or outlook, they may see a sadly deceased blue whale being led through the ocean by a number of amazing creatures, from the sea turtle to the giant squid. The whale is surrounded by elements of its demise, from the jellyfish-resembling plastic bag to the fishing nets. Or, conversely, they may see a blue whale playfully swimming upside down with all the other creatures swimming alongside, teeming with life. Perhaps the plastics and nets are symbols of a time before humans gained the wisdom we need to take care of our environment, and the animals are swimming away from them as their numbers bounce back in a utopic future. The Blue Whale is a poignant centerpiece to this print as it represents this dichotomy right down to the fact that it’s endangered by human-caused threats, while at the same time representing a small sliver of hope, being one of the at-risk species that new data suggests is just beginning to increase in numbers.
