Otilia Adam
The artistic work represents an "exchange of experience" between man and the living creatures.
The satirized image leads us to think that if we were to change the environment we live in, we would see the problem of pollution differently.
A harsh reality that we did not realize; we are not aware of our actions leading to the destruction of the ecosystem. The work is done on canvas painted with acrylic colors.
