]]>Using 144 strips of glass confined in a cube, Medicus reproduced images of lynx, bee, kingfisher, and river trout. All these animals are affected by the lack of care for the environment and ongoing climate change. They are in danger of losing their habitat and getting closer to extinction if humans don’t change their approach.
Human Animal Binary is currently displayed in Innsbruck, an Austrian mountain city that also serves as the capital of Tyrol. It will remain there for the next 12 months. The artist is also preparing a film about the project that will share more details about the process of creating the sculpture and the goal it aims to achieve.
“Human/Animal Binary was designed to last. One day the installation will stand in a different social context: as a memorial that has come true or as a relic of a time that has been overcome,” the artist explains.
If you can’t make it to Innsbruck, see what makes this “Human Animal Binary” special in the video below.

]]>He wants to raise awareness of the possible extinction of endangered animals from the environment. His project is more than just lightening up these animals, it’s a cry for help to save them and showcase the natural beauty of our world.
Using a powerful projector, he brings to spotlight his frescoes on massive mountains and high places.
“I plan to project even more images of distinctive animals in other parts of the world. For instance: lions in the Moroccan Atlas, which disappeared in the 1950s, pumas in California, where their extinction has just been confirmed a few months ago, also Gorillas in the Great Lakes Region, where their vulnerability is now increased by conflicts in this region and deforestation.”

]]>His work includes paper cut-outs portraits of animals beautified with delicate lace motifs stacked in layers to create a 3D effect. Last year, he created a series to raise awareness of endangered animals from all over the world. The intricate and abstract facial patterns of these animals serve as a reminder about their vulnerability. Cabral donated half of all his sold portraits at the art auction site called Acts of Kindness, to the World Wide Fund for Nature in the Philippines.
Check out his latest work below, and this time he’s taking his art into the next level by putting some colors on it.

]]>British photographer Tim Flach is one of those people who is trying to raise awareness about this problem. He spent more than 2 years, visiting endangered animals and photographing them. The final result is series of photographs titled Endangered, which offer the audience an intimate look into the slowly fading animal species. Take a good look at these photos and see what we’ll miss if we don’t change our relationship with nature.
