Progress
"Carbon-footprints" are the amount of waste product and carbondioxide we produce and leave behind; it is currently hurting the environment on a unprecedented level. From everyday foods on our plates to the automobiles we drive to work, every step we take generates a filthy effect towards the environment. Although the effects may not seem so evident to the eye right now, if we give it enough time, it will begin to take a tremendous toll on the very creatures that showed indifference to preserving it--Us. In order to prevent the rising sea levels, extreme weathers, we ought to rectify our attitudes towards the world we live in; and rather than taking it as granted for the sake of satisfying our own conveniences and pleasures, we should safeguard it, tend it, sustain it for the sake of ourr future generations to come.
I created this piece called "Nature's Footprints." As someone who is borned in the 21st century--a generation that has experienced the effects of carbon footprints--especially growing up in the cities, and informed about continegent nature of our world, I conducted a research on the harm humans have done to this planet, realizing how unharmonious we are with the environemnt. The foot print symbolizes life and regeneration; as the pedestrian, who is possibly natrure's deputy, traverses the concrete streets contaminating with the gift of nature.

I like this direction as a new direction (summation or discovery) of your journey. Is this final? If so maybe take out the dividing lines along the middle w photoshop. Also the photo is tilted, I'd center it. I like that you are still playing with negative shape in this, I wonder if there is a way to make it more mysterious, like the vibe of your previous work, with filters, etc.?
