‘Hybrid Minds’ by Saik Gonzalez for @fraeuleinmagazine - Creative Direction + Photography + Fashion @saik.gonzalez Model @iamaliceice Photography + Fashion Assistant @eliaruizgarcia - ‘Hybrid Minds’ is a project that was born with the intention of uniting individuals of different species with the aim of projecting the connection that exists between human beings and the animal world and the responsibility that we have as people to guarantee joint survival on the planet. - In recent years, we have noticed a significant increase in meat consumption worldwide. - This has brought with it numerous problems where the animal species has been subjected to mistreatment, and where governments and food sectors have benefited economically through animal exploitation. - The capitalist model in which we live globally supports the idea of mass consumption and the need for production in all areas, in order to generate money without taking into account ethical, moral and environmental values. - Hence, the number of supermarket chains has increased and, consequently, that of macro-farms. - Animal abuse, exploitation, overproduction, abusive consumption, food waste in supermarkets, are just some of the problems we are facing these days. It is the job of each one of us, and mostly of governments and multinationals, to stop this chain that condemns millions of animals and promotes violence. - ‘Hybrid Minds’ projects this criticism and invites reflection on the importance of the union between human beings and the animal world to preserve the existence of our planet.
