“Frostburn” (2023)

Image Transfer and Acrylic on Canvas, 9x12in (Two Separate Canvases)



Concept: My piece uses many binaries.  Highlights parallels between fire and ice. Showcases a dramatic, grim future in which the harsh impact of climate change has been fully realized. Harsh winters freeze over, and fires rage on. The two images directly parallel one another. They represent the importance of climate change, and how we are now faced with unstable temperatures. From blistering cold to scorching heat, these issues only continue to worsen. We must be mindful of our impact, and do our best to change.

Alt. Text: (Top) Snowy mountains with faces frozen into each peak. (Bottom) Parallel of the top. Mountains turn to fire, and faces turn to skulls.
