For this project i tried very hard to stay away from clique topics, and obvious ones. I went threw 7 images before i finally liked three of them. So they go in order from top to bottom.
A Consumer Without a Face
In a capitalistic society, i feel that the consumer begins to loose there identity by conforming to popular trends in fashion. This image is from a magazine dating back to the early 60's. I first rendered the image and took out any unwanted dust from the image and cleared it up. then i proceeded to take the clothing and wrap it around the consumers face. It took awhile to wrap it so that you could still see the texture of the ladies cheek bone.
Who Really Is the Terrorist
After watching the war and peace report one late night, i was stunned by the images of corruption of our own government. In the report an intelligence official released disclosed information to the public about the death of two European reporters. It was announced that it was done because of false intelligence, but later reports now say that military officials knew that the hotel was occupied by reporters and still called it a "terrorist threat". Why must so many people die in the name of peace, and terror. Why must such a great country spoil its name in the heat of war. This is a tribute to all falsely accused of terrorism and my god bless their souls.
The HatE Lingers on
A friend and i where talking the other day and she urged me to check out this summer abroad program in Vietnam, that worked with children with mutations from agent orange. I have heard in passing about this but never took the time to read into it. After reading for a few hours i was inspired and made this image. This is an image of a victim of agent orange. Images such as this one are hidden away from the public. There was approximately 21 millions gallons of agent orange dumped in Vietnam during the years of 1962-1971. The toxic chemical has caused many birth defects in American troops. And because is has seeped into the Vietnamese water supply and has been causing mutations among new born. The image i have shown is nothing compared to some of the others.
