Satyajit Das presents a provocative examination of the use and abuse of images of wild animals, and how they shape our relationships with the natural world.
These pictures can create an impression of abundance and untouched ecosystems, and lull us into a false sense of security, at a time when the natural world faces ecological calamity.
The Attenborough Effect — Shaping Our Relationship With Wild Animals was presented by the Australian National Maritime Museum.
