We all, whether humans, animals, trees, or plants, share one environment, and we cannot live outside of this environment. Therefore, the environment affects us, and we also affect the environment. After human progress and needs have increased, their waste has also had a huge negative impact on the environment. Art is one of the ways through which we can defend the environment from the negative impact of humans and human waste. On the other hand, art, especially contemporary art, has raised awareness among people about such negative impacts on the air, water, and land environment.
