]]>Sharks are actually a lot less dangerous than you might think. Only 30 shark species out of close to 400 that we know about have been recorded to attack humans. The University of Florida released data that shows there have been only 57 confirmed unprovoked cases of shark attacks on humans in 2022 and five unprovoked shark-related fatalities. The Centers for Disease Control, on the other hand, report that 22 people die from cow attacks each year.
In an attempt to change the narrative about sharks and make people look at them in a more positive light, digital artist Requinoesis started a series of illustrations that feature sharks as their main characters. In these cute and colorful artworks, sharks are shown hanging out in their small cities, exploring the ocean depths, and taking well-deserved naps.
“With my artwork, I try to purify the “Jaws feeling” that haunts the image of sharks, showing that there are many more creative and imaginative possibilities in these creatures than just their jaws!” the artist shares.

“Mostly our comic is about the minutiae of everyday life, relationships, and emotions. We thought it would be funny to put those things into the mouths of fish that are perceived to be cold-hearted killers,” Talbot told Bored Panda.
The ideas for these comics come from everywhere— the Internet, news, or random situations that come to their mind in the most unexpected moments. Christian’s job is to do all the research and Sophie then illustrates those ideas on paper.
“The more I learn about Sharks, the weirder, and more appealing, we find them. A lot of marine biologists follow us now, and they appreciate the niche jokes about plankton,” Talbot added.
Check out their artwork in the photos below.
