Alison\u2019s recent and current work reflects on the injustices and traumas endured by humanity; referring to cross-cutting themes: devastation of community lives and peoples joys, abandoned and disrupted societies and dreams. <\/strong><\/p>

The millions of horrendous journeys having to be travelled for safety and a hoped for future. The attempted destruction of accumulated cultural and historical memories. Alison\u2019s work despairs of the ongoing horror of conflict and war and the seeming inability of humans to learn from previous experience. Why do we put our resources and skills into developing smarter weapons to kill and maim and which cause untold ecological destruction\u00a0; rather than building a sustainable future for the world\u00a0? The enormous contribution the military machine and war has on the destruction of our ecological fragility is not taken into account when trying to address the climate emergercy. It is difficult to articluate the links, horrors, bewilderment of conflicts, and Alison is trying do this through her work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
