SUSTAINABILITY

As an artist, I believe sustainability is about meeting present needs without compromising the well-being of future generations or the planet. Climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions like CO2, poses significant risks, especially in product lifecycles such as art creation. Embracing sustainable practices, like using Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood and Inkjet printing with water-based pigment inks, reduces environmental impact. By choosing eco-friendly materials and advocating for a smaller ecological footprint, I aim to inspire positive change through my art and lifestyle choices. Practicing sustainability involves making daily choices that promote the well-being of all beings and ecosystems on Earth. It's essential for each of us to be mindful of our decisions, striving to harmonize economic, social, and environmental priorities to secure a brighter tomorrow for present and future generations.
