A Groundbreaking Exhibition of Paintings

by RAMA the Elephant and Calley O'Neill

RAMA, AMBASSADOR FOR THE ENDANGERED ONES is the magic that happens when a visionary artist teams up with an elephant who paints and an innovative keeper who choreographs their ‘creative contact’.

When complete in 2011, this pioneering exhibition, dedicated to the preservation of endangered species and habitats, will travel to major museums of natural history, science and art in cities throughout the USA and abroad speaking passionately on behalf of those who cannot speak.

Our goal is a wildly successful traveling exhibition, enthralling millions of people to come together to restore our delicate biosphere (the earth’s thin skin of life) through awareness and action. After all, there is no planet like home.

This multi-sensory journey has been designed to:

Generate a deep positive impression on the nervous system of every person who sees it.

Act as a springboard for people of all ages to think and act in new ways that have a beneficial impact on humanity, nature and the future.

Help close the gap of ‘what we know’ with ‘what we do’ so as to restore nature’s balance

Create a vision of a positive future to generate hope.

We are a part of this earth and it is part of us.

Chief Seattle, 1854
