SDG 6 | The Hidden Beauty of Freshwater Lakes | El Ovall

SDG Talks

What aspects of water are often overlooked?

Thanks for joining us for another episode of highlighting change makers and their inspirational work towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In this episode:

• How does El’s art take viewers on an immersive journey through the tiers of a lake?
• What’s El’s inspiration and connection to water?
• Exploring the layers of a lake through art

Find out from El Ovall - an Animation student at the University of Wisconsin-Stout!

El shares the inspiration behind her painting that beautifully captures the different tiers of a lake. From the world above the water to the invasive species below and the grassy aquatic plant life at the bottom, El wanted to showcase the often-overlooked aspects of freshwater.

She also talks about her personal connection to water as a symbol of refuge and peace, and how she hopes to expand the narrative quality of her art in her future work as a sophomore in animation.
