The artistic process

Climate change is disrupting biodiversity and therefore the behavior of migratory birds: our storks, which used to go to Africa for the winter are remaining in southern Europe or cutting short their migratory stay and returning earlier to France. In Portugal, which had estimated in 1995, over a thousand birds on their territory, has now counted more than 14,000 storks, alone! But the numerous open-air dumps there have disastrous consequences on the health of these birds*.
