Fragility

Artist: Trevor Kakuba

Medium: Photography

Artist Statement: A changing climate affects planting & harvest in many regions. In recent years, heavy flood rains & droughts have prevented people planting & harvesting according to normal growing seasons. A lack of fair trade in many places forces co-workers into competition to provide the best goods at the lowest price.
