Title:
TinTin in auction 2

Author:
Aziz Anzabi

Description:
This is a series of sculptures which has been influenced by the character TinTin as a symbol of saving the environment and Aziz's goal has been to show how nature is being destroyed and if we continue in this way it wouldn't be left for future generations. TinTin carrying the whale emphasises the crisis humanity is in while subtly through the irony of a human carrying a whale, he demonstrates that humans are using finite resources faster than they could be restored. Through using a whale, Anzabi provokes sympathy as he illustrates that the destruction of the environment has permanent consequences and affects innocent lives as demonstrated through extinction of animals throughout history. Although Anzabi has portrayed TinTin as having a disability, TinTin is selfless in trying as he tries to protect the environment
