For centuries, humanity has pursued progress - expanding industries, growing populations, and advancing technology - believing these to be signs of success. Yet, in this relentless drive forward, we have also disrupted the delicate balance between ourselves and nature. As we push the boundaries, nature responds, reminding us that we are deeply intertwined.

​

Inspired by The Great Wave off Kanagawa, “Human Nature” reimagines this iconic image. No longer just a breathtaking wave, it is reconstructed from fragmented portraits, people’s voices, charred imprints, and drifting remnants - traces of our evolving relationship with the environment. Once a celebration of nature’s power, the wave now reflects the marks we leave behind.

​

Here, The Great Wave shifts from awe to reflection. It urges us to reconsider our role - not as conquerors of nature but as part of an ongoing dialogue. The ocean, once a symbol of vastness and beauty, now asks us to listen and rethink our path forward.

​

This is more than an artistic reinterpretation; it is a call to recognize the fire we have sparked. It can lead to destruction, or it can ignite renewal - if we choose to see, adapt, and create a future where humanity and nature exist in harmony.
