Introducing
Ximena Caminos
"I strongly believe in the power of art to bring people together to address the climate emergency. What could be more symbolic of the overlap of the human and animal world than a herd of elephants on Miami Beach? The Great Elephant Migration puts conservation in spotlight and presents an opportunity to learn from the Indian coexistence experience in America. Like The Reefline, The Great Elephant Migration brings together between leading conservationists, designers and artists to raise awareness and funds. We have found this collaborative effort to be an unbeatable formula.”
