entry description
My images give a voice to and raise awareness for important issues in our life. Take a minute and think about what our lives would be like if we were the ones with straws stuck up our noses and plastic killing us from the inside out instead of the sea turtles and marine life that experience that every day? Can you imagine a world where that’s the norm? My photos bring awareness and attention to the current climate crisis our world is facing. It dives into the idea that these million dollar companies are taking advantage of their power and destroying our world for greed. My images depict what is being done to marine life by mirroring it on human models. Also, my images symbolically create the idea that Mother Nature is fighting back. It shows how the waters are becoming something more than just water; a monster fighting against the human race.back to gallery
