Final Outcomes - Portraiture



Wanderers

By Oscar page

Everybody seems to see the world through the screens of their phones or the monitors of their computers, wandering from one building lit with the lights of advertising to the next.

From my body of work I tried to show that the only lights we see are the ones that we make, and we let those lights made by the countless companies hat dominate our world guide us through life. When we can’t see those lights we feel lost and out of place, as if we belong in a place full of the advertising we say is destroying our planet. Cars drive by and we think nothing of it when we see people rendering what they were meant to use useless, and when we do decide to walk we’re the ones that are out of place. Suddenly when we don’t support the people who think nothing of turning our planet into a neon lit city we’re the once who are out of place.


Even when we don’t think we’re supporting anybody but ourselves when we walk from destination to destination, we still use the LED’s on our phones to keep us from feeling cut off from everybody else. As long as our phone has charge or there’s still cars shooting past us too fast to even see who’s driving them we don’t need to worry. Its only when we’re in a natural habitat that we’re somewhere unnatural to us.
