I wanted to convey my idea of taking on vintage draft posters from the U.S. in order to grab your attention. Through my exploration of the Contest theme, I discovered the many impacts of fossil fuels and other oil contributing to the melting of the polar ice caps. That partly inspired my idea, because a polar bear is a recognizable animal that is endangered due to climate change. The main message of my artwork is to get the viewer to take action.
