Every day, I feel frustrated about the way humanity lives. We seem so detached from nature, 
money and power taking priority over the well-being of the planet, animals,
and even our own health. Capitalism encourages a relentless pursuit of more, without caring 
about the harmful consequences for nature. My work draws inspiration from the song 'The Seed' by Aurora: 
“You cannot eat money, when the last tree has fallen and the rivers are poisoned, you cannot eat money.”
