"Faded Sea" is an evocative exploration of the fragile beauty and imminent dangers facing our world's oceans, rivers, lakes, and other waterways. This exhibition brings together artists who, through their profound connection to water, seek to galvanize action in the face of climate change, revealing both the splendor and the devastation wrought upon our planet.  

As planetary ice melts and water levels rise, the artwork within "Faded Sea" reflects a world in flux.  The rising seas not only threaten ocean life forms and ecosystems but also degrade water quality, disrupt weather patterns, and herald dire implications for our collective future. Each piece in this collection serves as a poignant reminder of the urgent need to protect our natural water bodies, while also capturing the ephemeral beauty of water and light.  

The iridescent and translucent layers in these works celebrate the movement of water, yet they are tinged with a sense of apocalyptic foreboding. Images of a world overwhelmed by either too much or too little water haunt the artists' visions, reflecting a planet in distress. The works evoke both terror and a melancholic peace.  Yet amidst the horror, there is also reverence for the natural world. The connection between human emotion and the sea is palpable. This exhibition is not just a reflection on environmental degradation; it is also a celebration of nature's beauty and resilience. The artists seek to share their joy in creating these images, even as they confront the reality of a world on the brink.

"Faded Sea" is a call to action, a reminder that our most precious natural resource—water—is vulnerable. Offering a first impression of serenity, this exhibition can also be seen as an elegy for the seas that are fading away, a poignant reminder of the vast, incomprehensible role water plays in our existence, and a plea to recognize the vital necessity to preserve it.  The living beauty of our water bodies, from the glacial coastlines of Alaska to the marshes and wetlands threatened by rising seas, is worth fighting for. This exhibition serves as both a requiem for what is lost and a testament to what still remains—an urgent appeal to protect the delicate balance of our planet before it fades into memory.
