“MI TRABAJO ES CREAR CONCIENCIA SOBRE LA RESPONSABILIDAD DE LO QUE SIGNIFICA SER HUMANO. Es entender que la historia de cada ser vivo vive dentro de nosotros. Es acerca del imperativo ético, del recordatorio urgente de que estamos inextricablemente unidos a todas las especies del planeta y de que tenemos la responsabilidad de actuar como protectores de nuestras formas de vida compañeras.” Bióloga marina, fotógrafa y apasionada del medio ambiente, Cristina Mittermeier ha dedicado su vida a crear un diálogo universal sobre la importancia de la conservación natural a través del impacto visual. En Amaze, Cristina recopila su trabajo con National Geographic para llevar la mirada inquieta y curiosa del observador a los sitios más salvajes y las comunidades más aisladas y, así, revelar no solo una absoluta dependencia a la naturaleza, sino nuestra propia humanidad.

“MY WORK IS ABOUT BUILDING A GREATER AWARENESS OF THE RESPONSIBILITY OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN. It is about understanding that the history of every living thing that has ever existed on this planet also lives within us. It is about the ethical imperative, the urgent reminder that we are inextricably linked to all other species on this planet and that we have a duty to act as the keepers of our fellow life forms.” As a marine biologist, photographer and lover of the environment, Cristina Mittermeier has dedicated her life to creating a universal dialogue on the importance of conservation through visual impact. In Amaze, Cristina compiles her work for National Geographic to bring the observer’s restless gaze to the world’s wildest places and most isolated communities, thus revealing not only our absolute dependence on nature, but also our own humanity.
