Citizens How would raccoons behave in a world without humans? Probably not much different. Rather, how would they be affected by what’s been left behind? The Bird Cafe What was once a congregation space for humans is now a bird paradise. Do they know their likeness was commodified to sell coffee and treats? It doesn’t matter anymore! The New Ecosystem In the remains of a frog-themed kiddie pool, a new resident makes its home. Frogs embrace and take over their new space to create a new ecosystem. Bees! Bees! Bees! In the remains of a beautiful, plant-filled kitchen bees cultivate their hives. The plants flourish and the kitchen remains beautiful despite the intrusion. The Teapot An unfortunate caterpillar crawled through the spout of a teapot to begin its metamorphosis. Unfortunately, the safety of the teapot has become a cage. Brunch Where else is better to leave this Earthly plane than Brunch? These two left behind beautiful jewellery and drinks…and probably some gossip as well. Self Care In the midst of a bubble bath, the end happened. This person left the world in comfort. But the water is still running. Morning Routine Some days you’d rather just stop existing than have to go to work. Maybe they’re grateful for the End of the World? Puppies! Dogs are no longer bred into forms that humans find cute and acceptable. Cute and acceptable breeding standards don’t exist anymore. Without humans, what can dogs become? The Creators Silk Moths have made a home on an old household 3D printer. Close Human Remains Human Remains depicts the legacy of the Anthropocene in the wake of sudden human extinction. Vignettes depict the whisper at the end of human existence and the apathetic response by the rest of the world.
