Nina G. (Age 17, New Jersey) explores humanity's sordid history of exploiting whales in her artwork, "Moby Dick."
.
"I remember when I was little, and I watched a cartoon version of "Moby Dick," and I actually felt bad for the whale. I always wondered why he was furious with humans. Maybe humans started taking all his food or killed his family off. I just always saw him as misunderstood, instead of a manifestation of evil that the characters in the book viewed him as. To me the humans in the story did more damage to the ocean."
