Description:
The "Think differently" series. Artwork (painting) using disposable masks. 30 x 30 cm. This artwork is about the negative impact of advertisements on the environment. Advertisements are everywhere around us. On the TV, radio, social media, internet, newspaper, etc. Advertisements impact our behaviour because it results in "overconsumption" through buying non-essential goods. It also has a negative impact on the environment and biodiversity, where we are facing a climate change crisis. Unfortunately, consumerist culture is really an obstacle to creating change. For me, art is one of the best tools to raise awareness about social and environmental challenges. Art has the power to bring us together to rethink about our behaviors towards a sustainable future.
