Kelsey Worth’s Artist’s Statement:
“At the beginning of 2022 I directed my focus toward ocean conservation. As a San Diego resident, surrounded by the ocean, aquariums, and SeaWorld, I was inspired to draw attention to human impact on aquatic ecosystems and global environments. My work often includes animals afloat celestial backgrounds, depicting stars, galaxies, and planets. The fantastical elements elevates familiar subjects, domestic and wild animals, to an equal level of reverence. The starry series I create captures the earth’s wondrous mysteries and instigates a call to action, appreciation, and to preservation.”
Fascinating Facts About Kelsey Worth:
“I am an advocate of a plant-based diet, which is one small act that I do in order to promote a more sustainable food system. I devote much of my time curating plant-based recipes and sharing them online @chickeaandlotus on Instagram. I want my work and my lifestyle to be a reflection of the values that I hold dear–respect for all life, do no harm, and build a better future.”
