Bali, Indonesia Privatization of water, pollution, toxic leaching, water terrorism, oil spills, pharmaceuticals, pesiticides, trillions of plastic bottles… This guy has the last bit of fresh water and he is going somewhere to save it -Canon EOS Rebel XT

Our society’s addiction to oil and oil based products is threatening the human race. Corporate greed is compromising human rights and the environment through pollution and global warming. Things must change before it’s too late. This t-shirt is designed to quickly communicate the relationship between oil consumption and human suffering. The image of a hand gun and the use of the colour red represents blood and human suffering (so I would recommend a red t-shirt, but it still works on other colours). The fuel pump nozzle and use of black represents oil and petrol consumption. The link between the two items is the ‘trigger’, each of which is designed to be levered by the human finger. The ‘Oil Kills’ global message defies language barriers; selling to buyers in USA, UK, Canada, Europe and Australia. This t-shirt was featured most recently in the group ‘James Bond 007’ in January 2009. It has also been featured on the main t-shirts page and in many other groups.

This took a while – extremely enjoyable and relaxing. In fact I may just do another in this theme. There is no background colour so by changing the colour of the tee it will give the frog a different look.

This is an entry into the Agent Provocateur T-shirt Challenge…. The theme – your vision of the future. What do you think life will be like in 250 years? More info here I do not hold much faith in humanity unfortunately… hence my design is a little depressing, but perhaps something that needs to be considered. Best Viewed Large *Note – I have added some badges…

The butterfly and birds were taken from my painting “Thoughts and Things” and the white flower is an old plastic earring….the teapot was given to me by my father who knows I collect tiny silver things like this…..from an op shop somewhere, thank you dad! The table is a cork! Once the Chunkies are created and photographed, I usually dismantle them to be used in the creation of more chunkies, so I am recycling the plasticine. These Chunkies have been very therapeutic to create over the holidays, whilst taking a break from red bubble and having my family around. I have many more to come, and although I won’t be on RB as much, I hope to also be doing some serious painting this year…so i look forward 2009 with much anticipation …

Gaia, goddess of the Earth / Your children when combined / Provide the seed to give life birth / As we know life defined / / Inseparable three children are / Mountain, Sea, and the Sky / For if these three became afar / Earth’s life would surely die / / Your children share each others gifts / Exchange these gifts all day / Rotated in unending shifts / So life on Earth can stay / / The Gaia hypothesis is an ecological hypothesis that proposes that living and nonliving parts of the earth are a complex interacting system that can be thought of as a single organism. / / Named after the Greek Earth goddess, this hypothesis postulates that all living things have a regulatory effect on the Earth’s environment that promotes life overall. / / This fractal artwork depicts this infinite symbiotic relationships that make Gaia, or our Mother Earth, the living and sustainable planet that it is. I have provided cutaways of the artwork below to view as I narrate the significance of that particular segment of the artwork. The cutaways are at 33% to give you an idea as to the complexity of the artwork. / / First, the overall shape of the artwork is not completely round. It is ever so slightly elliptical, as is the Earth, which has a greater circumference around the equator than it does across the poles. This is due to the fact that our Mother Earth is not a big rock, but rather fluid and alive under her thin skin called her crust, which itself floats around the globe as moving tectonic islands. Being fluid within, the centrifugal force of the earth’s own rotation causes the elliptical bulge on the plane of the equator. / / The lines in the artwork are continuous, with no beginning or end. This represents the symbiotic and cyclic nature of the Gaia hypothesis, whereas, all parts of Gaia are both dependent and interconnected to one another. We will follow these lines as I continue to describe the artwork. / / Water – The True Ambrosia / / When scientists go looking for life in the cosmos today, they consider first a planet’s ability to sustain liquid water. It is surmised by science today, that usually where you find liquid water, you will have a high probability of finding life. This is the key feature of our Gaia, the water planet, comprising 70% of the planets surface. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Pontus (the Sea). / Our own bodies are composed just like the earth, as we are about 70% water, and 30% solids. Water is found in all living organisms we know of on Earth. Our oceans also play a key role in the creation and sustainability of our protective atmosphere, pumping massive amounts of oxygen into the air. Water is the life blood of Gaia. / / Land – The Incubator / / Where water meets land becomes an ideal place to spark evolution and create the larger and more complex living organisms that inhabit land, sea, and sky. Warmed by land’s ability to absorb and retain solar energy in the form of heat, water becomes an ideal incubator for beneficial microorganisms. These microorganisms then evolve into more complex cellular life forms. So as in the artwork, where water mixes with minerals of the land, the tree of life roots down to bear it’s many varieties of life. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Ourea (the Mountains). / We can find most of the natural minerals of the earth within the solids content of our own bodies. We are as tied to the land as we are to the water. / / Tree of Life – The Mixer / / Life branches out, and an unlimited number of new life forms are created, with each of them forming their own ‘tree of life’ in the process and starting the cycle anew. This also represents the ‘core’ of the Gaia… an infinitely small point in a singularity where gravity is equalized, magnetism is equalized, and even space is equalized. The point at which energies, gravitational and electromagnetic, instantaneously become exact opposites of their previous energy states, this in turn creating enormous amounts of feedback energy in the process, starting the cycle anew. / / Breath of Life – The Exchanger / / Vegetation exhaling it’s life’s by-products as beneficial gases for the atmosphere, and at the same time, breathing in the by-products of the atmosphere as beneficial compounds to fuel it’s growth. Energy for this entire process is provided courtesy of our local star. This is also the exchange that provides breathable air for most of the animal branch of evolution. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Uranus (the Sky). / All life on Gaia, breathe life from the atmosphere, as much as they do from her water. / / Lung of Life – The Chemical Matrix / / Complex chemical reactions between particles of water, minerals, and gases are fueled by the sun high in the atmosphere creating a transport for water in the form of clouds. The clouds allow water to overcome the problems with gravity that would otherwise imprison it to the seas, and allows water to return back to the higher land, where in turn it nourishes life along the entire course of it’s trip back to the sea. Now the cycle of life on the living planet has come full cycle and is ready to begin another, yet unique, cycle. / / Shield of Life – The Force Field / / Gaia has two forms of shielding that protect life. The first is her electromagnetic gravitational field, that forms a protective envelope around Gaia as she travels through space, deflecting harmful solar radiation by conducting it around herself. The second is the atmosphere itself, being dense enough to incinerate most of the objects that we encounter on our journey before they can reach the surface. The atmosphere also provides the filter that allows a beneficial amount of solar energy to penetrate the atmosphere, while deflecting the greater amount of harmful solar particles and wavelengths of light back out into space. / / All of these components of Gaia are interconnected and dependent on one another. Because of this fact, Gaia, by definition, should be classified as a single living organism. An organism dependent of the health of all its components to guarantee the organisms health as a whole. / / The original artwork is 6000×6000 pixels at 300 pixels per inch. The gradient was created in ApoMap, a gradient editor commonly used with Apophysis. The fractal was created as a transparency and then used as a separate layer in Photoshop. The background gradient was created in Photoshop. / /
