The French duo Murmure, composed by Paul Ressencourt and Simon Roche, has recently completed a beautiful artwork made in collaboration with the IPAF Festival in the Terres Sainville neighborhood of Fort-de-France in Martinique.
The artwork is titled “Garbage Tail”, and is a continuation of their “Garb-age” series that aims to raise awareness about a very sensitive issue such as pollution.
“Garbage Tail” is made entirely of acrylic and brush with a deliberately realistic rendering capable of capturing the eye and at the same time send a very clear message.
This year’s theme was in fact: “Men and the Caribbean Sea”.
The relationship between man and the sea is increasingly complex, and this work reminds us of the scientific studies that indicate that by 2050 the oceans will have more waste than fish if we do not reverse course.
And to pay the highest price will be precisely all those beautiful species, that we all admire but because of microplastics, pollution in general risk to disappear into thin air.
The artwork “Garbage Tail” created by the French duo wants to accentuate and talk about this aspect.
Like the tip of an iceberg, the whale’s tail is the only visible part of the animal, symbolizing the problem of pollution and how obvious it is.
Here below the photos of this beautiful masterpiece made by Murmure.
