Invisible Barriers Of Catatonia



Are we blind to what's around us?



This black and white collage was constructed to symbolise the invisible divisions that separate each and every one of us as we go about our everyday lives.

Barriers stopping us from seeing the true extent of mankind's flaws allow us all to easily to drift into a catatonic state where we are almost oblivious to the turmoil, bloodshed, and destruction all around us.

Turning a blind eye to the suffering is in a way no different to inflicting the suffering, but being oblivious to the suffering because of the coma like state many of us exist in is another matter altogether.

I have chosen black and white imagery simply because colour can at times be one of the main reasons for divisions in life. Without colour life can immediately take on a whole new complexion, and in some ways become far more straight forward to a life with colour.
