Thomas Mushet is a contemporary Scottish artist whose work often engages with social, political, and environmental themes. One of his notable pieces is titled "Net Zero Now," which reflects his concern with climate change and environmental sustainability. Mushet's work is known for its bold use of color and abstract forms, often accompanied by textual elements that reinforce the thematic message. The "Net Zero Now" piece specifically addresses the urgency of reducing carbon emissions and the responsibility of the top polluting nations to lead in the global effort towards achieving net-zero emissions. His artwork is part of a broader movement among contemporary artists who use their platforms to highlight critical environmental issues, blending visual impact with activism. Mushet's background in art reflects a journey of rediscovery, having been initially discouraged by a lack of inspiration in his early education, only to be later captivated by the works of artists like Jackson Pollock. This influence is evident in the dynamic and expressive nature of his paintings. His commitment to making art that matters is a central theme in his career, and "Net Zero Now" is a prime example of how he uses his craft to contribute to the dialogue around climate change. To date his works have gone to collectors and supporters in ME, Europe, China, Japan, US and U.K.
