Environmental Illustration
Narrow Lens
An editorial illustration created for the article *Animal Capital: A New Way to Define Human–Animal Relationships in the Context of Global Change and Food Insecurity*. The artwork explores the relationship between wildlife, environmental change, and human perspectives on nature.

Behind the image
The illustration uses a camera viewfinder as a visual metaphor for the limited human perspective on wildlife. By contrasting elephants within the frame with the surrounding barren landscape and animal remains, the composition highlights the environmental consequences that often remain outside our field of vision.
