About Human and Sea Série d'illustrations numériques

Human and Sea est une série d'illustrations d'art numérique consacrée à la relation entre l'être humain et l'océan. Les illustrations adoptent un style surréaliste et une forme de montage. Des figures féminines apparaissent parmi les poissons, les coraux et les algues, aux côtés des déchets abandonnés dans l'eau. L'harmonie entre l'homme et l'océan y est célébrée, tandis que la pollution et la destruction des mers y sont dénoncées. Chaque image est dessinée sur une tablette graphique à l'aide d'un logiciel de peinture numérique. La série est conçue pour l'impression et les médias en ligne, dans le but de soutenir la protection du milieu marin.
