“Let’s Burn Mother”

The artwork “Let’s Burn Mother” is a powerful metaphor that criticizes the destructive relationship between humanity and Mother Earth. The cubist woman, with an ethnic mask evoking wisdom and connection to indigenous cultures, raises her arms in a gesture of pain and despair as small humanoid beings, similar to cave paintings, attack her and set her on fire. This image represents the way humanity continues to treat Mother Earth disrespectfully, burning her forests, eroding her land, and filling her with pesticides. Despite this, Mother Earth, like a loving mother, forgives us and continues to nourish us generously. The artwork is a call to consciousness to change our relationship with the planet and start treating it with respect and care.
