Like Frogs in Hot Water…
I just did a short photography series “Like Frogs in Boiling Water”. The title may not immediately explain the subject, I purposely did this to raise curiosity. I was looking for a 1940-1970’s geopolitical tension look –gloomy. Here are my little blurb and the images:
Slowly and surreptitiously people’s rights have been chipped away for years but lately, this
has been accelerating. We, the people, are the target of those in government, actually, of
those in power and behind the scenes. The loss of assumed natural or given rights are
only noticeable when they are no longer.
Terrorism is a convenient partner to those in control. With the pretext of security, we
willingly accept the imposition of all sort of barriers which leave us outside. We become
aliens with fewer and fewer rights. We accept passwords, codes, closed doors, barricades,
blockages, fences, and walls as protectors while they make us intruders.
Will we wake up on time?
Do you worry about this? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
