Finishing off this week’s feature with Angela Gonzalez ’s “BIOS 2.0.”

BIOS – Basic Input Output System calls attention to trees and their role as the “lungs” of our planet. Global warming is the result of excess greenhouse gases, man-made emissions yielded from activities such as burning fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and natural gas, along with deforestation and destruction of tropical rainforests.

Please give Angela a follow at and check out her work on the EcoArt Showcase!

Continuing our feature for Angela Gonzalez with her piece, “Deleted.”

Deleted is an artwork about the species extinction crisis our planet is facing. The Golden Toad, the first documented species extinction attributed to global warming, has become a symbol of the consequences of climate change. Although the extinction of the Golden Toad has generated ambiguous scientific arguments about the reason for its death, the reality is that biodiversity is being threatened by climate change.

We’re closing out ‘s feature with a bang!

Alissa is currently experimenting with soft-sculpting parts for a new functional lighting series inspired by botanicals. “If we don’t experience the natural world as part of our external self, we will continue to create waste, practice harmful economics, and lead lifestyles which are not healthy for us or our planet.”

Finishing off this week’s feature with Robert Santore ’s “MANHATTAN COVID NUDES 1, 2, & 3”

Painted in the Manhattan studio during the most challenging times during the 2020 COVID lockdown is an illustration of despair and hope, longing for the simple things... a bath, a conversation, a human connection.

Continuing our feature for Robert Santore with his piece, "WHAT TOMMY SAW"

"WHAT TOMMY SAW" is his interpretation of actual events and eyewitness accounts of the devastation of war. The impact on people, life in general, ecosystems and the health of the environment. The painting has a WWII era plane exiting an explosion juxtaposed with the recurring jellyfish shape which represents the random wanderings and impact humanity has on biodiversity.

We’re starting off this with EcoArtist Robert Santore !

Robert’s piece above, "BLM Freedom Of Though, Speech & Assembly," depicts the struggle and gender equality of people of color and the fight to be seen, heard and treated justly. This is an incredibly emotional piece, hand drawn and painted during the worst of the COVID lockdowns inspired by the George Floyd and other murders of oppressed people in the United States and globally.

Ending this week’s feature with another cardboard painting from !

Since 2014, She has created several cardboard installations related to a theme called Urban Cage, which began first as a memory of my first home, Hong Kong, an overpopulated city where the poor lived in cage-like homes.

Please give Yeungto a follow at and check out her work on the EcoArt Showcase!

We’re adding to our feature with more images from ‘s “Urban Queen.”

Introducing K Y Fina Yeungto ( ), our newest EcoArtist of the Week!

Pictured above is “M14.” She uses recycled cardboard for painting, expressing a sense of displacement and resettlement inherent in urban life. While she is living in New York City, she has created a series of cardboard paintings about the everyday subjects she has seen in the city. These paintings express my emotional relationship living in the metropolis. M14 is a bus line that runs on 14th street in Manhattan.

Finishing off this week’s feature with ’s “La Tour Eiffel Dans Ma Pensee.”

He strongly believes there is beauty in imperfection, we are all imperfect in our own way, and this philosophy is certainly reflected in his unconventional approach to sculptures, drawings, or any multimedia he comes across. In his practice, he does not try to hide the imperfections, in fact, he relies on them to create an original work of art that cannot be duplicated, not even if he tried. This work is made with cloth hangers, inspired by the artist's travels.

Please give Sergio a follow at and check out his work on the EcoArt Showcase!
