As a photographer, I strongly believe that photographs perform a vital role in highlighting the urgent need to halt the destruction of natural habitats essential for sustaining life. Photography serves as a catalyst for prompting a critical revaluation of environmental sustainability. The dual function of photographs, both as representations of reality and conveyors of emotions and ideas, generates creative tensions that inform my personal growth as a reflective practitioner. These tensions also foster interactions with audiences and collaborative endeavours with fellow artists from many different art disciplines. I find it essential to openly engage in discussions on social issues through art. Observation, experimentation, and collaboration serve as my primary methods for critically engaging with environmental issues. The production of compelling aesthetic images serves to draw attention to the paradox of the sublime, a nexus of beauty and fear of environmental destruction.
