Introduction



Welcome to Naturaleza, the galleria showcasing mother nature! This galleria strives to show the various artists who utilize the environment in their works of art. The creation of an environmental artwork may be simply to reconnect with nature or encourage others to reconnect with nature, however these pieces are also often used as vessels for informing the public about climate change and other environmental crisis. The following artists have each created art of varying sizes, which seem in many ways dissimilar, however all artists used nature as their muse and therefore ventured into nature for inspiration, whether it be to the desert, mountain, beach, or under the sea. These artists each want their viewers to question their relationship with nature, spend more time in nature, or work to save nature, but all unite under a central idea which is to inspire thoughts about nature.
