As climate change is often on the forefront of our minds, I thought this a worthy cause & proceeded to develop the idea of a "shadow portrait" with elements to reflect climate change and, in particular, global warming. My approach was to show in visual language a few vital points of how the we humans have had such an enormous effect on our environment. The outcome is an arresting image where my shadow is a metaphor of our being anonymous, voiceless & powerless while our skin being is burned by the sun due to climate change.
