I am hoping the following artworks provoke deeper consideration of our relationship with nature. The most significant cause of endangered animals is habitat loss. We need to move from viewing nature as something that’s 'nice to have' to seeing it as the most fundamental factor in our civilisation's survival. Rewilding our planet and the recovery of the planets natural habitats needs to be a priority for all of humanity.

Australian Key Stone Animals

The following Australian animals are vitally important to their ecosystems and their extinction would be disastrous. Habitat loss is the the most significant reason these keystone animals are endangered. In this series of five works I have placed each native animal in their own suitcase with a map illustrating the distribution of their species in Australia in 2020. Each animal has there own unique seeing eye device because they are searching for an alternative home.
