Zaria Forman, a U.S. artist try to raise climate change awareness through her finger drawings, these drawings look like realistic like a real photo.
The inspiration for her drawings began in her early childhood when she
traveled with her family throughout several of the worlds most remote
landscapes, which became the subject of her mother's fine art
photography. She developed an appreciation for the beauty and vastness of
the ever-changing sky and sea. she loved watching a far-off storm on the
western desert plains; the monsoon rains of southern India; and the cold
arctic light illuminating Greenland's waters. In her work she explore
moments of transition, turbulence and tranquility in the landscape and
their impact on the viewer.
In this process she is reminded of how small
we are when confronted with the powerful forces of nature. The act of
drawing is a meditation for her, and her hope is that the viewer can
share this experience of tranquil escape when engaging the work.
At first glance, these images look like like photos of glaciers and
icebergs afloat on tranquil and frigid seas. The truth is somewhat more
interesting, however – they’re enormous soft pastel finger drawings by
U.S. artist Zaria Forman.
