For this artwork, I wanted to raise awareness for climate change, since it affects all of us and should be stopped as soon as possible. After brainstorming multiple ideas for phrases to use, I ended up going with “maintain and sustain”. We need to take care of nature and keep it healthy and protected. Using a Lumix camera, I took a picture of an orange in my garden to represent nature and added a slightly orange filter, which is to represent pollution from fires. Surprisingly, the picture looks like it was taken during the evening when I actually took it in the morning!
