在1979年的时候，非洲大陆上仍有约130万头大象。这个数字如今骤减到了41万。平均每年有两万头大象因为象牙被非法猎杀。
象牙对于大象而言就像我们的手臂和牙齿，他们用它来寻找食物以及同伴们打斗。
除了因为象牙而被残忍的切掉面部以外，大象们还因为其在旅游业的价值被囚禁虐待。
大象是一种有情感感染的生物，他们会为亲人和同伴的不幸感到痛苦并且一直保有记忆。大象不属于我们，不应该为做成配饰，也不应该成为人类赚钱的工具。人类没有资格剥夺大象的自由。
这个系列意在让观众了解这些信息并产生共情。试想一下如果你身体的某个部分被夺去做成商品，或是目睹亲人和同伴被杀害的痛苦。
我希望将观众短暂地从一切都很快被淡忘的现实世界拉出来，认真审视我们的生存环境以及犯下的残酷恶行，去保护，去阻止......
In 1979 there were 1.3 million elephants on the African continent. Today this number is just 415,000. An average of 20,000 elephants are poached illegally each year, killed for their ivory tusks. Elephants use their tusks to gather food and challenge others for resources. For an elephant, losing their tusks is like a human losing their arms and teeth.
Besides ivory, humans also use elephants in tourism, and treat them like slaves.
Elephants are socially intelligent beings and feel each other’s pain. Elephants belong to nature, not to humans. They are not tools for making money. Elephants own their freedom.
This collection aims to create empathy in the viewers by having them imagine the pain of losing a part of their own body or a member of their own family. I aim to pull viewers back from the relentless demands of the modern world, for a short moment, and to call on them to preserve nature; to stop the cruelty that is happening before our eyes.
