The photographer Rachel Sussman decided to start a project
taking pictures of the oldest organisms alive in the world. She then traveled
around the globe capturing the magnificence of our struggling and vulnerable
yet alive and resistant environment, which we affect more and more.
This article is highly visual, for the environmental
pictures together with the explanation are what captivates your thoughts, but
if the reader is interested and read further about those organisms we can
easily discover how amazing they are. Breathing and reproducing slowly after
thousands and thousands of years. Ancient
beings steadily observing, giving and taking to our environment.
For me learning about the past and present and being
sentient of the things alive and our environment gives me more reasons to
celebrate and take care of the place I live. The more I learn, see and feel all
this beings sharing the world with me, and what happened through time so that
we can be here right now all part of diversity makes me conscious and aware of
who am I.
