“Interlinked” is meant to show the connection between humans and the environment. Although these things are often considered within separate spheres, people are a part of the environment, just like any other living creature. It may help to see humanity and the Earth as interlinked to communicate the importance of conservation, but also for people to gain a deeper appreciation of the nature around them.
This piece was partially inspired by a George Eliot quote from “The Mill on the Floss.” The quote reads: “We could never have loved the earth so well if we had no childhood in it, if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers. . .What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known and loved because it is known?”
