Dissociation - Acrylic on Canvas
12" x 12"
The distractions, comforts, pressures, and conveniences of modern times cloud and sever an intricate connection to the natural world. When a whale lays to rest on the shore we are confronted with the realities of our coexistence and responsibility to all life forms and beings. Going forward, it is our choice to be responsible caretakers of our environment or else choose to remain in a dissociative state. - Cody Lecoy
