Entangled

conceptualized, shot, and edited by Viviana Tirone

“Entangled is a visual commentary on humanity’s impact on nature, portraying a contrast between the beauty of the natural world and the destruction caused by human negligence. The central figure, a personification of nature herself, is ensnared in plastic waste, symbolizing the suffocating grip of pollution and careless consumption. Once free, she now struggles beneath the weight of discarded materials, her form entwined in the very remnants of human excess."

“These pictures capture the delicate balance between life and destruction—her expression a mix of sorrow and resilience. The background, once lush with organic beauty, is now tainted, reflecting the reality of ecosystems choked by plastic waste and pollution. The vibrant colors of nature fade into muted, artificial tones where the synthetic overtakes the organic.

This piece serves as a call to action, urging viewers to recognize the consequences of their actions. It reminds us that nature, though resilient, is not invincible. Through awareness and change, we have the power to free her from this entanglement before it is too late.” - Viviana Tirone
