In the midst of this detrimental effect on our marine ecosystem, beauty can be found in a sea of plastic, ignorantly discarded man made objects, and natural material that washes ashore.

Indiscriminate Beauty of Riff Raff 2017
 
This series reflects the artist's process of finding beauty and creating composition using unaltered marine debris found in the shoreline environment. Each piece is based on discovered objects, but it is also a commentary on flotsam and jetsam and its negative impact on marine organisms and avian species. In the midst of this detrimental effect on our marine ecosystem, beauty can be found in a sea of plastic, ignorantly discarded man made objects, and natural material that washes ashore. Mozart uses photography as a tool and works with the imagery using digital manipulation and digital painting techniques.
