Why Artemis?
In ancient civilizations, Artemis was formidable in her role as goddess of conservation.
In her earliest form that predates Greek culture she was associated with Mother Nature as a protector of animals, plants and the wilderness. We see a shift in later Greek culture that includes hunting, child-birth and the moon but always conservation and protector of animals, plants and the wilderness.
The gallery takes inspiration from the goddess of conservation as protector. Artists always lead the charge to change. Throughout history there are many examples of how art moved change forward.
Our mission is to celebrate art inspired by nature to support conservation.
“Let’s use our passion to create a ripple of positivity that starts in our hearts and ends in the universe.”
