Apparition of the Past

•

Based on concepts of a post-apocalyptic future, one where ecosystems have collapsed, this image speaks of an unwritten story, a metaphor for the perils of our time and that which is yet to come.

A human figure wearing a filtration mask drudges through a harsh environment. Holding a talisman or totem of a bear skull, he knows not what he carries but knows it contains the power of the past—a time of potential and plenty. An apparition appears, one that only we can see but he feels its presence. We know what it is, he knows what will be.
