    I found this artist and had to share. What metaphors spring up for you in his work? Does this show how we need to move with our environment or that it just doesn't work? Or is there a metaphor I'm not putting here?

    If I can offer my interpretation...

    I believe the artist is making the statement that Humanity needs to make more of an effort to coexist with nature, and that cooperation should not be an annual event, (eg. Earthday) but a year-long committment. The subjects stern expression symbolizes the determination that humanity has for progress.

    In short:

    Man WITH Nature, as opposed to, Man VERSUS Nature

    I think the beauty of that thought is reflected in the seamless and equally beautiful presentation.
