SHORT SYNOPSIS A POETIC REFLECTION ON EMPATHY, VIOLENCE, AND BLURRING IN CONTEMPORARY MEDIA. OUR MINDS EASILY DECIPHER WHAT HAS HAPPENED — EVEN WHEN A FIGURE IS REDUCED TO PIXELS OR A SMUDGE. THIS WAY OF VISUALIZING CONTENT STRIPPED OF CLEAR HUMAN FORMS STILL EVOKES EMOTION IN US, AND AT THE SAME TIME — NORMALIZES EVIL.
IN THIS FOG OF WAR, WE ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT EMPATHY AND HUMANITY.
AT WHAT POINT DOES A SMUDGE STOP BEING A HUMAN? EVERY DAY, AS I SCROLL THROUGH THE INTERNET, WE COME ACROSS EXECUTIONS, BOMBINGS, HUMILIATIONS.
THESE IMAGES, ONCE CENSORED, NOW SPREAD FREELY ON PLATFORMS LIKE SIGNAL AND TELEGRAM.THE ONLY CENSOR IS YOU.
