Description
The Earth has cardiac arrest. All next generations' lives depend on our actions. But this doesn’t have to be negative since we do also have the ability and possibility to improve the Earth’s condition. We’re aware of the Earth’s heart rate and the time left. It’s time for us to operate.The girl to the left symbolize the next generation, she can’t reach the Earth, aren’t able to assist. The man to the right symbolizes a politician of the current generation, which has the definitive decision.
This is a summarize of how I see the world’s climate situation today. But this is an allegory, which means you can interpret it many ways. So feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below!

Thank you for letting me use one of your photos as a reference!
And thank you for your massive support and for helping me with the concept!

I find this very fascinating. It's an awesome piece of work. However, if I'm gonna complain a little, I think it's hard to focus on something. Of course the blue stands out, but since the graphite parts are very light I feel like the picture lacks depth. Also both the girl's and the man's hand (the one closest to the viewer) seems a bit deformed. But with that said, I'm still in awe over this one.

I'm very glad that you point those things out! I will practise more with drawing hands and i will have the depth in mind when i'm drawing in the future! Thank you for your kind words but mostly for your criticism!

I'm glad you appreciate it. It's always tough when I manage to hurt someone with critisism, even if I meant well.

Väldigt bra budskap, och jag håller med i vad du säger. Jag gillar att jorden är i färg och att resten är svartvitt

AWESOME concept!!!
Nice use of colour to focus on the earth, at the same time enough detail that makes you wonder about in the whole image
tho, i see the little girls arm is a bit too thick.
On the other hand
Good job!
