"Ned and Burka help me process my own transmutations and responses
within the seismic context of an imploding nation and planet.
I just want to smash all the existing regressive societal constructs
that limit who we are and can be.
See how Ned and Burka now merge, overlap, transition, shift shapes colours moods...
uniting in heartache and love, hope and loss...
the Eyeseeyou series includes eyes that see you and each other clearly as one race.
We are one race. We're the human race."
