About the Item

The body of work, titled "Anthropocene 2016-2018," explores the ways in which humans have impacted and altered the natural systems of the earth during what is known as the Anthropocene epoch. Through my art, I am chronicling the visible scars left on the earth's surface as seen from above, and questioning our impulse to alter the natural course of the planet's story through our actions. This body of work is focused on raising awareness of the ways in which humans have altered the planet, and encouraging viewers to reflect on their own impact on the natural world. By highlighting the visible scars left by human activity, I am drawing attention to the need for greater environmental stewardship and sustainability practices.
