EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by David Fleetham takes us on a journey to Turtle Island, the ancient name for North and Central America. The concept of this mystical land formed on the back of a turtle is deeply rooted in the beliefs of Indigenous peoples who hold sacred connections to their ancestral lands. In this artwork, we are transported to Hawaii, where the turquoise waters blend seamlessly with the clear blue sky. The vibrant colors and surrealistic elements create a dreamlike atmosphere that invites us to explore this mythical terrain. As we gaze at this image, we can almost feel ourselves drifting through time and space. The palm trees sway gently in the warm tropical breeze while stars twinkle above, reminding us of our place within the cosmic order. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight both the natural beauty of Turtle Island and its symbolic significance within indigenous cultures. It serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with nature and invites contemplation about creation stories that have shaped diverse cultural identities across these vast lands. David Fleetham's artistic vision brings forth not only an appreciation for wildlife but also an exploration into themes such as mythology, religion, and cultural heritage. This stunning piece allows us to immerse ourselves in a world where dreams meet reality – where land meets sea – all under the watchful eye of a majestic turtle carrying centuries-old wisdom upon its shell.
