About this poster
This painting, titled "Stampede" and created by artist Josh Keyes, presents a striking and thought-provoking visual metaphor. The artwork depicts a layered scene, with various wild animals and environmental elements on the surface, and an orca whale swimming underneath.
On the surface, the scene shows a chaotic stampede of deer, bighorn sheep, and other land-based animals, with a car accident, a stop sign, and other human-made intrusions interrupting the natural flow. This upper layer symbolizes the impact of human activity and encroachment on the natural world.
Beneath the surface, however, is a hidden layer featuring an orca whale swimming freely, representing the unseen and often overlooked state of the oceans and marine ecosystems. The juxtaposition of the two realms creates a powerful metaphor for the delicate balance between human and natural systems, and the need to consider the broader environmental consequences of our actions.
The detailed, realistic rendering of the individual elements, combined with the surreal, multilayered composition, makes this painting a visually striking and conceptually rich work that explores important environmental themes.
