Surrounded by Time with a Canary in a Coal Mine

The exhibition Surrounded by Time with a Canary in a Coal Mine, aims to capture the fragility of our environment and the urgency of conservation. By juxtaposing historical illustrations of endangered species with their current plight, the objective is to create a poignant narrative that evokes both nostalgia and concern.

All works are sitting on shelves as repositories of memory that adds depth, suggesting that these once-vibrant beings could become mere relics of the past. The title references the canary’s role as an early warning signal, reinforcing the idea that the loss of biodiversity is a call to action for us all.
