I never talk politics on social media (or even with friends) as it usually leads to a heated discussion, hurt feelings, and a few "F" bombs. So, I decided to convey my thoughts through images. Whether you are liberal or conservative, we can all agree there are some major problems facing our country right now. Everything from government corruption, broken justice system, religion (or lack there of), poor diet and nutrition, the shock value "look at me" YouTube generation, and how we have all become desensitized and almost apathetic in our response to hate crimes and mass shootings. I'm not here to get on a soap box and say who is right or wrong, but to invoke a sense of urgency to make a change before it's beyond repair.
The images use a visual metaphor of a living tree being cut down, disassembled into logs, and burned to the point where it has little to no value.

我从来没有谈论政治在社会媒体(甚至和朋友),因为它通常会导致一场热烈的讨论,伤害感情和一些“F”炸弹。所以,我决定通过图像来传达我的想法。无论你是自由派或保守派,我们都同意有一些现在我们国家面临的主要问题。从政府腐败,破碎的司法系统,宗教(或缺乏),不良的饮食习惯和营养,展示自我的YouTube一代,我们都变得麻木了,几乎冷漠回应仇恨犯罪和大规模枪击事件。说谁是对谁说的错,这种紧迫感改变之前的无法修复。
这些图片使用一个被砍伐活生生的树,将其分解成炭,并将其烧烧到没有价值。
