Description
The artwork reflects the contradictory human intervention in nature: always striving to impose their knowledge and will on nature, yet at the same time demonstrating that oneself and the world around them are interconnected and harmonious. Humans tether the crabs - removing the power of the crabs to control them. Nguyễn Đình Hoàng Việt is well known for his incredibly detailed hyperrealistic paintings of animals.
