The Sublime

“The Sublime” is a series of illustrations exploring the similarities of human actions and nature's destructive forces while knowing the nature will always overpower human. Influenced by Laozi: “The universe is unconscious; it regards everyone as insignificant.” Created with the hope to promote respect for the nature and responsibility for our actions. The nature is eternal, but we are not. By protecting the nature, we are protecting ourselves.
