Elephant Conservation

I have been invited to collaborate with an elephant charity based in Tanzania on an interactive installation to raise interest in an new and fascinating way of preserving the last surviving elephant families in the area. By demonstrating how similar we are to these animals perhaps we can increase the empathy required to save these animals from extinction. Mega fauna is more in peril than ever and it has always been humans who have destroyed them. We have a chance now to change that script. Please join us as we work on this using natural materials and experimental processes to open up hearts and minds to their plight.

We are in the development stage. More will soon be revealed…

Please email me if you would like to know more as the project develops. Please feel free to share this page to anybody you think might be interested.

The Great Wall project took me five years with the help of 400 volunteers and countless studio assistants. They are the real heroes and they should be totally proud, given the impact and reach of that artwork.

See here my legacy of sociopolitical artworks. Because they can take years to produce they don’t come thick and fast but have been a constant in my practice since art school. All my other work helps to fund these, sometimes difficult to realise, projects.
