Скачать или смотреть Street View: Ambassadors by Abbey Bratcher

Belfast Exposed is proud to present Street View: Ambassadors by artist Abbey Bratcher.

Ambassadors set out to inspire and inform others about the importance of coexisting and protecting our natural world before it is too late. As humans, we tend to anthropomorphize animals, believing them to embody human-like qualities. In contrast, Abbey believes each animal to be its own unique creature. Therefore, Abbey focuses on light, shadow, and each species’ distinctive textures to highlight the immense details of each animal.

The remarkable detail is exposed in a dramatic natural light as these ambassadors claim their independent existence, giving the viewer the ability to experience each species as its own entity. With habitat loss and poaching acting as major threats to many species, Abbey's intention is to intimately immerse my viewer in each portrait, allowing them to stand witness to a personal conversation about our vanishing wildlife.
