Description

Salmon Cycle illustrates the balancing act that Salmon face in our world to regenerate their species. The adult fish are cycling upstream. The smolts/babies create the cycle’s tire and are swimming downstream in the direction of the sea.

Artwork Statement

The piece pays tribute to the "Me Too" movement. On the seat of the unicycle is an oversized female Oncorhynchus nerka gliding along. On the pedals are two males peddling. The female balancing on top of the unicycle is a portrayal of where the #MeToo movement intends to steer society to make a change.
