Art Protest...Indian Pipe Series

Picture
I have embarked on a series of protest paintings regarding the stand taken by the Native Americans and others at Standing Rock, North Dakota.  The Indian Pipe plant (Monotropa Uniflora) is a parasitic plant that feeds upon fungi which in turn uses trees as their hosts.  This feeding chain is a symbol of the proposed pipeline that may run through the soil of the sacred Native American land.  Do we hold anything sacred?  Are the stars in the sky left to be plucked from their hanging to line our pockets?

Hello - I love this! I have spent most of my scientific career studying Monotropa unilfora and I would love to talk with you about purchasing this picture. Please shoot me an email if you are interested in selling.

Thanks!
