"Eroded Equilibrium"

In these photographs, the intricate mordancage process is employed to profound effect, reflecting the haunting interplay between the tenacity of nature and the intrusive erosion brought about by the micro-plastic pollution. Through a deliberate chemical alteration, the images present landscapes and portraits in the throes of an existential struggle. The mottled textures and lifted emulsion poignantly symbolise the fragmenting of ecosystems under the relentless assault of plastic waste. The stark contrast of the pristine scenery in the backdrop, juxtaposed with the distorted foreground, illustrates the dichotomy between industrial advancement and environmental preservation. This visual narrative is an intimate meditation on the scars that human-made materials inflict upon the earth, echoing a silent plea for harmony and sustainability. It beckons viewers to contemplate their own impact on the natural world, urging a collective responsibility for the stewardship of our planet.
