The monkey freaks out

"Bluerang-Utan Baby", 2011

This is my brand new oilpainting. It is called "Bluerang-Utan Baby". You can watch it now also in my galery.
I'm very touched by these animals. They, the Orang Utans have so much to suffer. Only a fue of them live in small areas on the island of Sumatra. The forrest is cut down more and more. Monoculture instead of biodiversity. This is a big risk for the existance of the Orang Utan.
I was painting the orang-utan baby in blue (-> "Bluerang-Utan Baby"), because I want to show the nearly death of the species. The cold blue body is like symbol for a cadaver. But the monkey is alive. It is shown with innocent looking eyes and a smiling face. The fact that the orang-utan is a baby exacerbates the situation. Though it is still young, it is condemned to die with its whole species.
I wish that we could change the situation of the cute animal. In my opinion there no doubt about the right to live for the orang-utan. The animal resemble a lot the human being. The difference is that we are able to arrange the environment - we change the whole environmental process in the world. In every case we are doing it, because we are consuming.
The consumption rate is increasing more and more. The expansion rate of the human population is rising too and the struggle for existance and survival of so many plants and animals can not be won anymore.
To save for example the life of the orang-utan we have the change our consumer behavier. Please, have a look at yours.
