#SLONIK
An extraordinary normal Elephant
#Slonik is a 23m/75ft tall inflatable elephant, designed to draw people's attention to the problem of abuse and extinction of elephants in Africa and Asia. If we allow elephants to become extinct, it's going to damage the entire eco-chain, including humans themselves.

I chose the most famous art festival on the planet as the most appropriate place for #Slonik - "Burning Man 2019", which attracts tens of thousands of people from all over the world - and millions more follow the events through the media and social networks.
