A post shared by Maria Sharapova (@mariasharapova) on Apr 22, 2020 at 7:42am PDT

Sharapova decided to share a piece of art that describes a close look over Chernobyl from Earth’s perspective. Chernobyl zone is now inhabited by wildlife and there’s almost no trace of humans. Chernobyl “is a window into a world without us”. This region, where the infamous nuclear disaster struck, played a special role in Sharapova’s early childhood, as the Russian and her family was 30 km away when the explosion happened.

“Today I’m supporting the launch of ‘Earth perspectives’, a new artwork conceived by Olafur Eliasson for Earth Day 2020. This particular image holds a special place in my heart. The Earth viewed over Chernobyl, in Pripyat, Ukraine. The site of the worst nuclear disaster in history, where rare and endangered species now thrive in the absence of humans,” wrote Sharapova on Instagram.
