1.2 Billion people dying of failure

Which is more blinding? Which is more tragic? Think about it.

(and YES, this was taken with a camera)








Failure / Success

Ok seeing as how i just woke up and i feel like shit, this link is very confusing to me..i don't know if it was intened to be what it was, and if so...i am lost, but in a way i see what you are saying..failure...this is a photo...there is nothing on it...just emptiness, and blackness...i guess i can see what you mean through this...*goes back to bed :|

Think harder. What are the principle foundations of the "color" or lack of color, Black. It is a lack of. What does this concept parallel? What can it parallel in life?

well black can be a lack of vision...we don't see things cause our minds are in the dark...that is what comes to mind...and it can be the opposite of white...what we can see ...this really makes my head hurt:( lol

I'm so happy haha, I love these 2 pieces. They represent so much, they don't look like much, they don't look like photographs, they don't speak to you, but they make you think SO much about such a basic concept. Just like how basic the problem is, and people fail to address the problem. It can represent the problem I suppose. :)

well, you can not say that it dose not speak to any one, cause i saw it right away in my watch and was like ..ok..he is up to something clever...and then i see what this is all about and find out that it's all just something that messes with my head :p but you are the king making one think...so i give you props, yo :B

I think these peices would feel more ironic if you were to entitle the black piece success and the white piece failure, only because of the typical symbolism of the colors which you play into. Regardless I admire the idea(s).

Very meaningful, and scarily endearing. :+fav: to Failure.

I wonder if anyone would pay attention to this if they didnt know who you are and what you have done in the past.

To me, this is an exercise in the hype of art.
For example, people always use the Mona Lisa as the best piece of artwork in the world, but I can think of many other pieces on DA that are much better.

If I tell you its art it is.
well renowned artists (like yourself) get away with a lot more.
