Polyurethane painted black // William Sweetlove's Cloned Black Elephant with Watercans (2010-2011) is a striking mixed-media sculpture that portrays a life-sized black elephant with a water canister attached to its side. Made from painted polyurethane, this artwork belongs to Sweetlove's ecological-themed series that emphasizes environmental concerns, particularly water scarcity. The elephant, symbolizing strength and resilience, becomes a carrier of water, underscoring the vital role of conservation and resource management. Sweetlove’s choice of a cloned animal reflects his commentary on genetic modification and humanity's impact on nature. Measuring 190 cm in height, 250 cm in length, and 126 cm in depth, the sculpture is both an impressive and thought-provoking statement on sustainability and human responsibility toward the environment.

What is Environmental Art?
Environmental art is a collective term that refers to a wide range of artistic practices and works that engage with historical and ecological themes. The term often encompasses ecological concerns, although it is not exclusively defined by them. Environmental art acknowledges and appreciates the early history of the environmental art movement, including works with activist themes and those celebrating the connection between nature and the artist through the use of natural materials.
