"When I think of the oceans, I think of abundance. A profusion and even an overwhelm of colors, textures, shapes... of creatures and ways of life we can only guess at. And yet one of the primary threats facing oceans is the loss of biodiversity. There's a dwindling, homogenizing, and bleaching occurring that's truly terrifying. I wanted to address this fear in my painting for Pangeaseed, and I hint at the loss in the desaturating fade of the piece. However, I've long found myself constitutionally unable to portray my natural subjects in too much peril, and instead, like to invest them with almost supernatural powers of protection and hope. Here I've chosen an endangered juvenile Albatross as my hero, bringing together a bouquet of ocean plants and creatures as a sort of talisman for resiliency. I hope that in generations to come, these lives, forms, and colors are still here, and even thriving in our oceans." -Josie Morway
