My work is inspired by "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Hieronymus Bosch. The Amazon rainforest is first shown as peaceful and full of life. To the right of the figure shows a barren wasteland of destroyed rainforest. The figure separating these two scenes is the iconic Brazilian model and envornmental activist Gisele Bundchen. Through her eyes, we see her fear of the once indestructable force of nature being degraded to the point of no return.
