Each artistic expression in any medium is an attempt to bring the ‘audience’ to a different perspective of viewing life through the vehicle of the subject at hand.
Artists express both intellectual and emotional concepts that are often restricted by the spoken or written word by moving us into ‘another’ world. Through art, artists try to illuminate a different way of ‘seeing’, and thus opening up new vistas of understanding.
Art about the environment started gaining popularity about five decades ago, and nowadays, it is still one of the most potent ways to reach people.
