The master's thesis deals with the issue of nature pollution and the role of humans in this degraded environment.
In the theoretical part, I established a connection between the current economic and social system and the consequences on the natural environment.
In a century of technological progress, humans have become a tool of an economic system that pursues the wheels of constant growth. The once perfectly understandable local dependence on natural resources has turned into a global dependence. This has blurred the link between products and the ecological consequences of unethical production.
Progress has actually led to the degradation of the natural environment. Now, a good century later, the consequences of exploitation are more than obvious. Drastic climate change and waste pollution has begun to take away flora and fauna, our original natural habitat.
We are in a period of resolving environmental issue, but our lives haven't really changed. We are obsessively focused on the excess of waste, i.e. to the symptoms of hyperproduction, while we are not dealing with the cause of the situation.
In the practical part of the thesis, I presented the connection between a small person and a large nature through digital animation. The rift in their relationship, however, is deepened by cultivated consumer habits. The concept of the placement of elements elevates the almighty nature, but at the same time points to the futility of hyperproduction of plastic products, which creates a conflict between the value of life and the value of the material.
