Dale Gooding
Dale Gooding is a former winner of the Pear Photography Prize for his spectacular account of the melting of Gould Bay. His winning series of photographs was executed over a period of ten years, and document the ice shelves of the bay gradually being eaten up by the Weddell Sea.
Gooding was also instrumental in the success of the Pear Africa Multi-purpose Community Centre project in Lilongwe, Malawi, 2019-21. On the return to L.A. of Gooding (and fellow artists Americo Burgheim and ), Pear Online Cloning C.E.O., Kenneth Mader, exclaimed: 'We are absolutely thrilled by, and thoroughly proud of, Pear's achievements in Malawi. It was beyond our wildest dreams that, within the three years, these three artists would succeed in installing Africa's very first online cloning system. It is just wonderful that Pear has helped these children develop a better life in their community and that Africa is now aware that online cloning is the way forward for society.'
