La Niña | Bronze | 27 x 11 x 11.5 in | 69 x 28 x 29 cm

Like the weather event called La Niña, the irony of the name "little girl" often is synonymous with global change and unpredictable affects stemming from those changes. Change is a necessary part of growth and forward motion. But it's not always forward growth, is it? From politics to plagues, liberations and inventions, scientific advancements to artificial intelligence, we must be wiser than smarter. The monarch butterfly is a reminder of how delicate it all is to keep things in harmony to avoid catastrophe. When we finally see the error of our ways, humanity often overcorrects and we plunge into another kind of disaster. La Niña is about consequences and Newton's crucial realization that with 'every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Oh, what have we done? ~ Paige Bradley
