Kia ora tatou:
A friend gave me this poem the other day. Prophetic, somehow.
It seemed appropriate to accompany it with this image&#8230;
The Journey
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice&#8211;
though the whole house

It has been some time since I posted on the subject of the environment, a subject about which I am passionate and not a little concerned. I guess my artist&#8217;s statement, a text I revisit from time to time, which is still the source code for my work, sums it up for me. [...]]]></description>

I talked of the visual pollution that would result from erecting 170+ wind turbines in a place that is relatively visually pristine. I commented on the need to clutter the landscape with windfarms, when other measures, such as active promotion [...]]]></description>
