While traveling in summer 2019, I glimpsed an article where a talented and soulful photographer wrote about a family living in a mine. On a hot summer day, the family found their shelter in a peaceful cave. My idea revolves around a part of a mine which later converted to a room.
I am an immigrant, so were my grandparents. People always travel in search of the home, safety, and work. I believe we originated as nomads and if we wouldn’t have been moving from one place to another we would have never evolved. but it is also very heartbreaking that many people are still trying to find a place to live on their very own planet. We all know what is unfair and what is going on so I don’t wish to write about it. but I am hoping that my artwork will touch the heart of the viewers to remember that how lucky we are to have a place called home.
Recently I came across a paragraph written by Yuval Noah Harari and for me its thought-provoking,
”The extinction of Homo Sapiens Would mean survival for millions,
If not billions, of Earth- Dwelling species.
Phasing out the human race will solve every problem on Earth Social and environmental”
Enjoy the comp
Best wishes.
