entry description
Friendship of a global kind is a depiction of friendship transcending across borders and distances. Polar bears and penguins never meet in reality as they are on opposite geographical poles. There is also an element of climate change, as the polar bear is longingly looking into the snowing globe while he himself finds himself in a snowless landscape. We can read this pictures in two ways, like an illustration taken out of a childrens' book or try and understand its messaging.about the photographer
