"I paint flowers so they will not die" -Frida Khalo


This piece is a commentary on the value given to electronics versus the value given to nature. We have let technology take over our lives instead of using it cohesively with nature. I wanted the buffalo to have an expression of frustration and even resentment. He is looking away as if he was ashamed of us. The wires and cables have been imposed on him and he has lost almost all value. We have put a price tag on nature instead of realising that our ecosystems are priceless.
