"What Does Your Revolution Look Like?": Uruguayan Photographer Praises Frontline Indigenous Communities for Defending Rainforests
A billboard-sized photo taken by Uruguayan photographer Pablo Albarenga, winner of 2020's Sony World Photography Award, was displayed on the outer wall of Eaton Hotel, Hong Kong.
The photograph shows a tree standing alone at dawn after surviving deforestation in the Amazon rainforest. The photo is collected in Albarenga's Amazon series which aims to raise awareness of natural conservation and the sustainability of indigenous community.
In his works, Albarenga called for the protection of not only vegetation, clean air and animals, but also the 30 million native population in the Amazon area. Albarenga praised the indigenous peoples at the frontline for "defending their as well as our homes".
On another billboard at Eaton Hotel, the question "What Does Your Revolution Look Like?" has also been on display for several months; however, since the enactment of the national security law in Hong Kong, the word "revolution" was removed and ironically replaced by an ellipsis.
