Explanation of my mask and its message
Elephant made from green crepe paper, made from a solid plastic base covered by a red and white banner (used to mark off danger zones). Two Nespresso capsules representing the eyes of the elephant. A piece of ivy at the bottom of the mask.
My solution to the environmental crisis
This mask has a double meaning, the decline and extinction of animal species (represented here by the elephant) due to global warming (amongst other causes) brought about by human activity. The gas mask, an industrial man made object, used to protect us from chemical weapons that furthermore contribute to destroying the planet. This mask denounces the ecological and environmental impact brought about by human activity.
