“Wild” is Oorjaa’s rendition of the wonders of the wild. The ancient jungles of this world are places of immense importance because they sustain life by creating oxygen, food and water, without which none of us would be here.

These creations are more than just illumination, they are an homage to the forest's creativity and harmony and reminders that deforestation and climate change are putting forests and life all over the planet in peril.
