GOTTA CATCH ‘M ALL. 2023

Dennie Boxem uses Pokemon cards to visualise our biodiversity loss. This series consists of two parts: POKEMÓN EXTINCTIÓN and Boxem is currently working on POKEMÓN DOMESTICATIÓN. Nowadays only 4% of all mammals are wild; all elephants, rats, lions, etc. The other 96% are us, humans, and all the animals we bread to eat; cows, pigs, sheep, etc. We are truly GONNA CATCH ‘M ALL!
