For the last decade, I’ve been building massive art that translates facts into feelings.
I travel the world collaborating with schools, communities, and organizations.
Together, we build art that shows what’s possible when you shift from apathy to action.
A 4-story-tall faucet built using trash from the slums of Kibera, demanding corporations to #TurnOffThePlasticTap.
“WWF mobilized unprecedented public pressure — collecting 2.2 million petition signatures in support of a strong Global Plastics Treaty in front of the giant plastic tap. That powerful symbol has contributed to us as an icon for our movement.”
Erin Simon, WWF“The massive tap that dominated treaty negotiations years ago remains a lasting visceral symbol of the relentless destruction our fieldwork continues to document and the urgency of bold and immediate action.”

A 2.5-story monument highlighting the interconnectedness of nature and humanity. Donated to the Botanical Gardens of Cali.
“Powerful artistic statements such as Biodiversity Jenga — a dazzling multi-artist creation on display at COP16 — inspire a rethinking of our relationship with the web of life that sustains our very existence on this planet. Art is our ally in the whole-of-society endeavor to halt and reverse biodiversity loss and make peace with nature.”
Astrid Schomaker, Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity
A 6-meter sculptural piece at the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations that gradually drowned in plastics every day talks dragged on.
Over the years, my art has generated billions of organic views, amplified by hundreds of organizations & news outlets around the world.
We hire and engage local grassroots communities, amplify their voices through our global campaigns, and create evergreen educational resources.
Over 200 students and 25 locals helped bring the Biodiversity Jenga to life. The sculpture was donated to the Botanical Garden of Cali, which welcomes over 100,000 visitors every year.
We want to bring many more environmental monuments to life.
