"Caterpillars" came out of the deep sadness I felt after I read an article in which Hilary Clinton warned of the new form of colonialism taking hold of Africa.
I thought about the small towns that I had lived in and visited in different countries in West Africa. I thought about the small farmers whose land was depleted by not only natural devourers, but also, human ones. They are forced from the land and must turn their gazes to the cities with the hope of feeding their families they leave behind.

A statement in any room. These matte, museum-quality posters are printed on durable, archival paper.
