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.

We should care for the natural world same as we do our offspring. All life has value. We cannot sustain the life of our species without healthy ecosystems. 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.

Do people greet another person by taking their mask down? I don't understand this.

I took it as a goofy picture of instead of people tipping their hats they slap their masks against their face in a gesture of greeting

The Spanish Flu was around that time, people were wearing masks then too. History repeating itself

Sometimes I needed to put my mask down in shop or on the street that my neighbours were able to recognise me.

I think they are lifting up their masks just one second to be able to see each other's faces

I do like that since facial coverings have become more prevalent, the friendly nod has seen a resurgence

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.
