Sperry at “Mermay” Art Show at Modern Eden Gallery

Siren by Chuck Sperry for Modern Eden Mermay
Siren, 2018
17.5 x 33
Oak Panel Edition of 30
7 colors on oak panel
Signed and Numbered

Originally produced in 2015 as a screenprint on paper for the ocean environmental activist foundation Pangea Seed, my latest print on oak panel, “Siren”, is meant as warning. My imagination has always been drawn to this mythical being – dangerous and enchanting – whose form is an enthralling warning. The Siren dances and sings like the sea itself, seducing us with her sound, movement and beauty.

Long ago, on November 5, 1965, prominent climate scientists Roger Revelle, Wallace Broecker, Charles Keeling, Harmon Craig, and J Smagorisnky met with US President Lyndon Johnson and warned him of their findings on Climate Change. By 1974, Wallace Broekner had modeled his prediction for the affects of accumulated carbon dioxide on the global surface temperature of the Earth.

His predictions remain accurate to this day.

I am alarmed by the state of our planet’s environment. I grew up with the warnings. The predicted changes are here now.

It’s clearly time to act. Please be mindful and give your care to the environment. It’s time to do what you can to become a good steward of the environment.
