Rise of the Elephants
In October 2015, I joined an illustration competition named Rise of the Elephant held by Frank & co. and LEBE (Let Elephants Be Elephants) Foundation in collaboration with Kreavi. I won the competition.
The brief was to make an illustration about endangered elephants—especially Asian elephants—as part of the LEBE campaign. I made three illustrations and submitted them all. Eventually one of my illustrations (entitled: Moment of Extinction) was picked as one of the twelve winners. My illustration along with other eleven illustrations were printed on Frank & co. 2016 calendar and journal. In addition to the calendar and journal, I also got two notes containing messages from Nadya Hutagalung, Frank & co.'s brand ambassador, LEBE co-founder, as well as famous Asian supermodel, actress, entertainer, entrepreneur, TV host, and environmentalist.
The competition itself is a part of a campaign to save the endangered Asian elephants. The participants have to submit the illustrations by uploading them through their social media accounts and share them with the hashtag #RiseOfTheElephants to raise awareness of the declining population of the Asian elephants.
The winning illustration, Moment of Extinction and the two other illustrations I made, Mommy, Where is My Elephant? and The Cause is Clear: Act Now! are shown below.
