Life Prevails

The sea ice in the arctic is melting rapidly. Scientific researches
shown that every year global warming contributes to the loss of
an amount of sea ice that equals 1.5 million icebergs the size of
the titanic. Melting icebergs and melting ice caps are altering
animals habitat and causing sea levels to rise significantly.
Animals are expected to become endangered and rising sea
levels are expected to cause flooding and erosion in low-lying,
coastal cities.
“Life Prevails” is part of project H.E.L.P. which consists of two
bodies of work. The coloured “Hope Evokes” and the
black&white “Life Prevails” . Each one individually but at the
same time in conjunction, work together to bring awareness
about the melting ice and H.E.L.P.
Black is, for seeing icebergs vanishing and white for their
rebirth. The eternal play of death and birth, the dramatic circle
of life. Life that finally Prevails, but only if we HELP
