Art Creation and Reflection – Photography/Cinema

Borsi’s primary goal was to ensure the images looked real and though they were unedited snapshots, making it appear as if she was some sort of an animal whisperer (Bored Panda, 2021).

Human species have significantly altered the natural ecosystems upon which life depends through human-wildlife conflicts. The sketch is a form of escapism that ignores the apocalyptic ecocide unfolding in contemporary communities (Ohara et al., 2019).
Both artworks communicate the lifelong expression and exploration of the relationship between nature a...
