Vaquita Porpoises
This print protects the Vaquita Porpoise, with 20% of proceeds going directly to the Sea Shepherd Operation Milagro IV.
The Vaquita Porpoise is the first of four marine species in the “Ocean Warrior Series” that have been created in an exclusive partnership with Sea Shepherd. Sea Shepherd has spent the last four years patrolling the Sea of Cortez as part of its campaign, in which the marine conservation group patrols for poachers and pulls up illegal gillnets which trap and drown the Vaquita.
Under the Skin x Sea Shepherd film
Following our trip aboard the M/V Farley Mowat in Mexico, we made an award-winning short film about our partnership with Sea Shepherd and the story behind our artwork created as a reaction to the threats faced by the critically endangered Vaquita Porpoise.
The Vanishing Vaquita
Under UV light the skeleton is revealed; all that remains if the Vaquita is to become extinct. The result is a unique and meaningful piece of interactive artwork. The intricate skeleton has high impact under UV light, but is equally subtle in daylight so as not to impede on the animal artwork when framed and hung on a wall.
