Perfect Balance in Wild Nature - Art Show by Gunsu Saracoglu

Nature stands in a perfect balance. Every living thing is fed as much as it needs to eat and continues its life with waste at a level that the soil or air can tolerate.

Our roots are in nature, as the natural structure of nature is destroyed including by light pollution.
