25 New Thought-Provoking Illustrations That Reflect Our Society, Made By This German Artist
Society is reflected in art. Art evolves to represent society's significant developments as it grows and progresses. The vital aspect of our lives is captured in art, which also represents our history. German artist Steffen Kraft aka “Iconeo” is a graphic designer and an activist who often raises awareness on climate change, human relationships, and just society in general through his artwork.
The artist has over 265k fans on Instagram and he continues to inspire his followers and sheds light on the reality we are currently living in. Kraft’s work has been featured on Bored Panda previously and can be found by clicking here, and here for parts 1 and 2.

Very true. Should have added a thought bubble for the dog that had something simple like "Hi, everyone" or "Belly rub!"
When it comes to his work and what he does here's a little story about the artist that he himself shared, "In 2017 I left my own successful advertising agency. My plan: To work in a flexible environment for clients that I can fully stand behind and whose values I share. I'm passionate about projects that make sense, that make the world a little bit better."
Since Steffen mentioned working for clients we were wondering what kind of clients he usually gets.
"New York - Amsterdam - Wiesbaden - Schwetzingen. Sounds like a stupid t-shirt slogan, but it corresponds to the cities my customers come from. I love this balancing act: on the one hand nice conversations on site, on the other hand global networking."
Our species is a plague on this planet. If we don't take care of the environment, Nature will take care of us - and She is merciless.
Reminds me of the old show on History, "Life After People". As for the business owners now the best all of us can do is try to support local businesses over uncaring mega corporations that view us as replaceable.
The artist should make this a sign and protest the Russian forces in Ukraine.
Sea horses eat live prey, which they are rarely fed in tanks Thus they die and people go out and get new ones. This is not exactly good for the marine sea horse population. A company in Hawaii, many years ago, was working on breeding/engineering a species of sea horses that would eat dead prey, thus saving all the wild sea horses rom being harvested for inevitable starvation. I hope they succeeded.
There should be more foot traffic than car traffic
Load More Replies...In your cities, the cars stop when there's a crosswalk and no traffic lights to tell them to stop? 😶
Too many people driving and not walking. The crosswalk is larger in the second panel.
I think it means a point of view can just be different and not always wrong. Drivers see things to be cautious of, walkers, so many cars. But it could just be the view from where you are.
Reality, "pedestrian always has the right of way" and they def take it a bit far sometimes. Alternate reality, is about the same. The street belongs to the walkers as cars weave through foot traffic 😂
It seems to mean that the road needs to be wider for pedestrians and not cars
In the uk all traffic stops for anyone on a crossing. They are called zebra crossings obviously because they are black and white.
They're called zebra crossings because they're black and white STRIPED. Not just cuz they're black and white. Pandas are black and white.

If you live in a town and neat 20km to get your stuff, your struktur is realy mest up. If its 30min. Away i take a bike. And then trains exist

Being human does not give us a right to use and abuse but a responsibility to steward our spaces so all of life in the present and future may also live.
If they ocean was whiskey and I was a duck, I'd swim to the bottom and drink my way up.
How do you get rid of plastic in the oceans, I wish it could fly away. Or Plasic is poluting or air also by microplastics. There are microplastics found in the snow in the archticis. It can only get there by air and wind.
