Originally I wanted to show how the human destruction of nature impacts me (trash on beaches, LA fires) and the world (Australian Fires, climate change, sea level rising). However, as I worked on my concentration the focus shifted towards displacement of animals. I experimented with different mediums and eventually settled on making small oil paint animals/trash and placing them on top of different backgrounds (charcoal, oil paint, pastel) in order to show animals outside of their homes and trash left in nature. The interchangeability of figures allude to how much the earth is endangered.
