This work intuitively shows the direct damage caused by excessive human fishing to the marine ecology. In the picture, the figure's hands are tightly entangled by broken fishing nets, symbolizing the evil role played by humans in greedy and irresponsible fishing practices. In the distance, marine creatures such as sea turtles, fish and sea leopards are also bound by the same fishing nets, reflecting how human activities ruthlessly restrict the freedom and life of these creatures. The work conveys a warning about the fate of marine life and calls on people to reflect on the serious consequences of overfishing. Urgent action is needed to protect the marine resources on which we depend for survival.
