TARGET  OF  THE  WORLD  WE'VE  CREATED


Picture
The "Target of the World We've Created" series features portraits composed on practice shooting targets, symbolizing humans as the victims of forces beyond their control, yet often of their own making. These “persons” frequently exhibit intense facial expressions to communicate the unease, displacement, and anger distinctive to our times. Many faces are often placed inside television sets, diving helmets, or astronaut helmets to reinforce this removal from reality.
