Summary: “Betrayal” by Mario Sánchez Nevado

                At first this piece was about gender violence, but Mario gave it a whole other statement regarding the affiliation between society, mankind and the natural world.

                The woman in this illustration is what represents Mother Earth, and this piece portrays man as threatening to demolish the natural world. The stream trickling down from the eyes of Mother Earth is a representation of tears, showing that Mother Earth is crying. Overall, this piece explains how mankind and modern time treats the natural world.

                This piece symbolizes man’s lack of knowledge and the consequence turning the central denotation from domestic violence to environmental violence. This illustration is great for the reason that it successfully communicates an extremely insightful and complex issue that is a very significant component of modern time. The issue of man’s lack of knowledge in regards to the significance of the environment has given up genuine concerns. This illustration is terrific because it directs awareness to the issue, and seeks to encourage change in human behavior in relative to the ecosystem.
