Artist statement:
"In an age of cell phone obsession and social media activism, there are few people out there in the world doing the real hard work, getting their hands dirty to make the world a better place. Tre' & Akira of PangeaSeed Foundation and their team are those people. I’ve witnessed great success in their direction on how to make art WORK for a cause. The funds generated from my prints in collaboration with PangeaSeed Foundation go directly into action needed to fight for the health of our oceans and endangered marine life, such as sharks, threatened by human activity and destructive industries.
I hope this example of art & activism shines a light on their efforts and helps expose the global apathy towards the ginormous threats facing our global shark populations and ocean ecosystems today.
Whoever is reading this right now, can support this important cause from the comfort of your couch and the privacy of your phone by buying this print and joining the fight to save our oceans! Thank you PangeaSeed Foundation for all you do and for letting me be a part of it!" - Tristan Eaton
