National Geographic Traveler, Oct/Nov 2018, p. 82 "Animals with Many Uses"
My magazine image "National Geographic Traveler, Oct/Nov 2018, p.82 inspired me to think about how human's consider animals as entities that are at our disposal to use and own. Animals that do not directly seem useful to humans are often disregarded, considered useless, or labeled a 'problem'. Humans use animals as a resource or as an exotic spectacle to view. This disrespect endangers many species, as habitats are destroyed to further Human gain. I combined both domestic and wild animals to appear larger than life, forcing viewers to consider the roles that animals play in their lives. My work is titled "Animals with Many Uses".
