Mika Revell’s “Unnatural Disasters 2015 – 2017” series features Asia-inspired works. According to her website: “Like the exoticized images of the Orient during the 19th century or statues of rulers and depictions of troops conquering new lands and peoples, Mika’s Unnatural Disasters portray a sinister view of man’s battle with nature.” (photo by Ali Zandi / Meniscus Magazine)
