My new work focuses on memory and the issues of sustainable fishing verses survival of our oceans.
This new series is titled, “Whales vs Lobster”. My work is about nets and ropes used in the fishing industry and the protection of all living things in our oceans. In Maine, one of the recently issue is lobster fishing ropes and the right whales entanglement. In the 1980s and early 90s, my family had a fishing boat and we did fishing, scallop dragging, and sea urchins off the shores in Eastport, Maine. In many of my works, I use old family photos.
