In the era of changing dynamics, the work of art is more than the meticulous color on paper. It has in fact fabricated a revolution of change in the approach of activism. Words though enchanting, do not appeal to the human heart, like that of the eyes.

For years long, art has been a medium to rejuvenate our soul from the damage inflicted upon us by this bitter world. But what if, I told you that today it plays a much bigger role that confines itself not just to ourselves, but the entire humanity.
The Earth Issue vol.1, editor Elena Cremona states that, "As a catalyst for change, art should not be ignored or underestimated."
Art is a catalyst to a change and for a change, use it wisely or tomorrow we face a never ending apoapocalyps.

Awareness of the inhumane brutality towards mother Earth using not the brightest of pigment, but rather the recycled and reused material is what should be learned.
Every art has an emotional connection to the artist in frame, and their creativity towards this emotion is what will bring us together to fight against the evil generating underneath us to bring this world to its end.
I have come across two such amazing artist who are bringing forth their creativity to aware this self-centered world of ours about the damage granted by us, on the extraordinary creatures residing between us humans.

Starting from Edward the Leatherback Turtle, to Eli the Eel, to Daisy the Polar Bear, to Henry the Rockfish Washed Ashore Organization (Washedashoreart on Instagram) has truly outdone the limit of creativity. These endangered creatures are sculptures made of the most insignificant and yet the most toxic material of the environment: Plastic.

The sculptures are completely made of the plastic that has drifted from the oceans into the shores, or are found on the shores itself. These plastic born creatures speak to us about the unhindered crimes, committed by us towards their habitat all for our own selfish needs.

The Little Trashmaid
What if, I were to tell you to re-imagine the famous Disney princess ' The Little Mermaid' in today's world!

German artist Stephanie Hermes (aka s0s2tagram) has created this disturbing and depressing image into a comic to enlighten the world of its destruction.
Her comic ‘The Little Trashmaid' (s0s2tagram on Instagram) accurately gives us an insight of the hazardous pollution in the oceans of today. If the little mermaid lived to see today's world she couldn't have been more perfectly represented.
