My entry is a conceptualized concept showing a dry and barren land that is polluted with smoke. The subject of the artwork is a woman in red holding a sponge that is dripping water as she desperately tries to clean the earth. He desperation is shown in her face as she openly cries and tears drip down her face that she is using to clean the earth. In her hair there is a sign on green plants as a show of hope that it's not too late. I came up with this concept after regarding the question of what effects has climate change had on the environment and health and wellbeing and one thing that stands out to me is the dry heat that seems to have extended where we are supposed to be having a rainy season. This has affected the availability of water nation wide. If this continues, a dry barren land might be in our future.
