Artist Statement

Our society has become desensitized to many of the bigger environmental problems that exist in our world. We are blatantly choking ourselves due to air pollution and deforestation as a result of our habits of consumerism. In my photograph, I convey a post-apocalyptic view of the world if we keep overusing plastics. Our children will suffocate due to our negligence and ignorance toward the alarming effects of plastics on the environment. I highlight the importance of trees to our survival—they breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. Without them, we will struggle to survive. I am an advocate for making changes to reduce climate change. I wish to help make our world a healthier place for us and for future generations to live.
