In celebration of Earth Day, The MAC Galleries is pleased to present artist Daniel-Kayne exhibiting his creation: Mine…Mine…The exhibit is a response to the notion of claiming ownership over natural resources. Kayne explores the struggle to attain fresh water in under-developed countries. Without a sustainable fresh water plan, the citizens of these countries suffer the consequences as their population expands. To delineate this imbalance, Kayne employs percentages as a visual tool. Fresh water is represented by the amount of water in the human body and the remaining percentage by human ash. Kayne’s motivations are multi-faceted. He seeks to inspire consciousness in our society to benefit not only the environment but humanity as a whole.
An opening reception will be held Saturday, April 14, 2012 from 5:30pm to 7:30pm at The MAC Galleries, located at 3120 McKinney Avenue, in the Uptown District of Dallas. The exhibition will be on view through May 19, 2012
