"Decay and Disarray"

A digitally manipulated photograph.

Inspired by the movie "White Fang"

This piece serves as a poignant commentary on the fragility of nature and the pervasive impact of human activity. The surrounding dead leaves and sticks symbolize the delicate balance of natural life, now threatened by environmental neglect. Scattered trash—such as paper, Q-tips, and plastic—represents the ubiquitous and ever-growing presence of waste in our surroundings. The inclusion of a water bottle, utensils, and a piece of candy critiques modern society's preference for convenient yet unhealthy choices, even in what we consume. At the center, the plate and white flowers embody the purity and potential of nature. However, the dead petals and trash interspersed within and atop the flowers starkly illustrate the visible and undeniable effects of environmental degradation.

The composition is imbued with a palpable tension, as if the surrounding elements—particularly the fragile leaves—are on the verge of being swept away by the slightest breeze. This instability mirrors the precarious state of our environment, where every action has the potential to tip the balance. The scene evokes a sense of melancholy, reminiscent of parks adorned with discarded trash, where the beauty of nature is marred by human carelessness. This juxtaposition serves as a stark reminder of the environmental harm we inflict, often unconsciously, on the spaces we cherish.

Through this composition, I aim to provoke reflection on our collective responsibility in preserving the natural world and reconsidering our consumption habits.
