As strongly as urged by the Gecko to protect biodiversity, you too can support CUTTart in its efforts to raise public awareness, particularly among children, as we must certainly rely on our future generations.
Ornate Day Gecko commonly known as Lezard Banane is muppet created and handled by designer Palmesh Cuttaree to star A Home A Painting of endangered endemic species campaign to help create awareness and advocate about conservation! – Palmesh Cuttaree
I have also designed a MUPPET a Gecko which is going to be the advocate of its imperilled species. It will also be the main character for a series of messages in children’s programmes with the expertise of Local NGO where new muppets representing the endemic species of Mauritius and Rodrigues will be introduced.
Mauritius is a biodiversity gem, thanks to the presence of unique endemic species that make it exceptionally special. However, the island faces various challenges, including climate change, cyclones, deforestation, habitat loss, invasive species, and chemical pollutants. Therefore, it is crucial to take action to preserve these natural treasures, our heritage!
To engage Mauritians in understanding and promoting this richness for future generations, I have created a captivating series of watercolour paintings.
Through the watercolours sales, CuttArt intends to donate from the revenue generated an agreed, symbolic amount to the Local NGO for each product sold. The latter being a Mauritian NGO engaged in awareness and hands-on conservation actions to safeguard the endemic flora and fauna of Mauritius.
