For the past 45 years I have been making images about women. Our strengths, our vulnerabilities, our creative powers and the mystery that all women possess. Upon my move in 1980 from Los Angeles to San Diego, I became mesmerized by the ocean, becoming an open water swimmer and a worshipper of the ocean's power to preserve, cleanse and create life as well as sustain that of us land dwellers. Climate change is here, and plastic pollution both on land and in the sea, frightens me and seems a daunting task that we mere mortals may not be able to repair. As a newly enlisted ecofeminist, perhaps deities from the heavens can and will be our only hope. Yes, science reveals the inevitable truth and daunting death of earth by the Plasticene. So perhaps to mobilize this call for a unifying salvation, we might consider illusion and subjective faith in something greater as the only way to collectively persuade every human inhabitant of earth to take action now. I say it is worth a try.
