"So ecologically our country has been going on a disastrous path towards oblivion with our government and just a handful of people recognise the ecology of our world, the oceans and so forth, and so these art works called Welcome to the Water Planet were comments on this delicacy of our ecology." - James Rosenquist, 2006
