Lost Connection to Nature

Title: Lost Connection to Nature
Description: A long time ago when humans had a deep connection with nature, fish were once deities and prestigious beings, full of magic. They presented blessings upon those who needed them and guided them to safety. Unfortunately mankind became greedy and the fish disappeared. Until one day, a girl in need of a miracle goes out to find the secret sanctuary where the fish were once worshiped. All she needs is a blessing to save her family from tragedy...

The image I chose is made from the illustrator, Wenjun Lin. Shown is a person on their knees facing a giant floating fish, hovering slightly over them. This image in particular reminded me of the scene in Luca, when Luca dreams of him and Alberto riding a vespa into the night sky, reaching their hands out to touch the “fish” in the sky. It’s very out of this world and dreamlike to see unconventional occupy a space, which is something I’d like to explore along with focus on composition, which drew me to this image in the first place.
