The subject matter of my work is OverConsumption. Human activities caused a huge impact on marine lives. Unfortunately people have only been treating them as a cuisine on their dining table. I chose Octopus to represent all marine lives. As you can see an octopus is crying because all of its tentacles are chopped down to pieces and turning into sushi rolls. There's lots of chopsticks surrounding it symbolizes the over consumption of human.
