The amazing colors of the remnant silk fabrics made me think of the incredible beauty of coral reefs. Knowing that coral reefs are in danger from ocean acidification and warming waters I wanted to make a panel about the importance of coral reefs to each and every one of us, ‘Every Second Breath” is the result.
