Camouflage
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic we have been given opposing messages:
‘We are in danger and need to be alert.’ versus ‘Things are not as bad as they seem and we need to continue living our lives and working.’

The animals and their environments are presented ambiguously; are they under threat from their chaotic environments, or do they themselves represent the threat?
