Where Is Adam?

IN THE BEGINNING WE ALL LIVED PEACEFULLY TOGETHER IN A PLACE CALLED PARADISE... But over time, humans grew further apart from the animals. In this series I wonder how things could have been if we didn’t leave paradise, is there still a way to return? Is there a way to create a new? Will we find a way? This series is dedicated to demonstrating the beauty and fragility of our natural world. A way to awaken compassion from within, - to inspire the future generation to preserve and protect their natural heritage. And that the physical use of animals is no longer necessary for photography or film today. It’s time to reconnect with our fragile planet - it’s worth our undivided attention. The landscape, Model, and animals (in their natural habitat from a safe distance) are photographed separately and form the elements for each composition. The photographs are unified by digital manipulation, usually through many hours/days/weeks of hand-drawn digital/painting. Each image in the series requires lenghty preparation, shot in manual mode with 40MP medium format.
