Tipping Point (2019)

The concern for continuation and survival gave rise to the title Tipping Point (2019) for my upcoming exhibition of mixed media art works to be shown at the Chambers gallery, Christchurch, May 28th – 15th June.

This exhibition demarks the precarious situation that many species and ecosystems are facing globally in a time of rampant industrialization, human consumption and waste – thence to the warming of the planets atmosphere underscores Tipping Point (2019)

My point of view is not a Utopian or dystopic one but rather one that is based on allegory and adaptability to a changing planet. These concerns and memories of such things combined with historical and contemporary notions of survival have underscored my work for several years.– D J Copland.
