deforestation

A barren landscape where once stood a thriving forest, the earth stripped bare.
Only stumps remain on a devastated land. Is this what we call progress?
Planet & Future

Description

Deforestation is the artistic act of carving up the lungs of the earth in the name of human progress. Trees are felled to applaud economic growth while the vanishing ecosystems receive nothing but a cursory glance. Transformed into lumber and paper, these trees serenade our conveniences. The majestic irresponsibility of assuming someone else will deal with tomorrow’s oxygen shortage flows freely in this spectacle.
