Part 2: Creativity and Innovation

Art Movement: Expressionism

Theme: Environmentalism

Reference Artist: Vincent Van Gogh 

Introduction: The word "environment" is most commonly used describing "natural" environment and means the sum of all living and non-living things that surround an organism or group of organisms. Environmentalism is a concern for the preservation, restoration or improvement of the natural environment. It also can be referred to as a movement to control pollution. 

Problem Statement: Some people don't seem to care about the environment and they don't feel like it's important to take care or to love their surroundings or mother nature. 

Purpose: The purpose is to create awareness to the people about how beautiful the environment is and we must learn to appreciate God's creation.

Research Question: Why we don't appreciate nature?


Love the earth
The fingers are showing the shape of love around the earth where it means we must love our planet, love the environment and love our nature. As you can see the background has different colors which represent the elements of the environment. The top level shows the color of the sun. Middle level, represents the color of trees and leaves. The bottom level shows the color of the ocean.

Sky is crying
Global warming is one of the threats to our environment. Hence, this sketch illustrates as though the sky is crying because we're suffering from global warming. The fire signifies that the earth is suffering from this threat.

Tree
This sketch shows a tree. Papers are made from trees and in order to make papers, humans need to cut down the trees which is not a good thing. Hence, this sketch is just to show that we must love our trees and we need to appreciate them the best way possible.

When the night has come
This sketch represents the environment at a beach where the moon is shining so brightly at a very cold, dark night. When you look at the moon, it reminds us to be thankful to all of God's creation and appreciate environment. 


Waterfall
This sketch shows a place where we need to get out of the busy city which is filled with different kinds of pollution and take time to appreciate and enjoy mother nature such as the waterfall.

Fade Away
This sketch represents the earth is being vanished or fade away. This is what happens when humans are not able to protect and take care of the earth hence, the sand (the earth) pouring down from the palm of the hands is as though it is being destroyed due to recklessness of the humans.

Zombieland
This sketch shows a dead land with no trees, damaged building and it's piled up with rubbish. Chaos happened when humans gone wild and didn't care about the environment.
