Fret
Size: 60'' x 50''
I shamelessly rely on this yearling polar bear’s poignant puppy-dog gaze to highlight its species’ struggle in our warming world. In Churchill,
Manitoba, this population's greatest challenge isn’t starvation but a declining birth rate. Shorter winter
hunting seasons mean fewer mothers can build the fat reserves needed to give birth to triplets — or even twins – once common here. For now, this lone cub, unaware of the challenges ahead, was simply lamenting a broken section of ice it didn’t know how to cross.

Where’s the Tipping Point?
Size: 107'' x 89''
As we learn more about climate change and habitat loss, we uncover critical tipping points — thresholds beyond which ecosystems may collapse, species may vanish, and the damage becomes irreversible.
This piece highlights the potential chaos of Earth’s future and explores specific tipping points we may be approaching, prompting us to recognize the
urgency of action before these changes become permanent.
