Photography

Embellished Enclosure is a photo series, with the main focus on the balance of color dominance. The art piece is abstract, yet political. The intention of the piece is to address the children in cages on the US-Mexico border. The colored background refers to an adolescent and youthful context and is thereby a symbol for entrapped children. The title compares the treatment to that of an enclosure; inhumane. The enclosure is “embellished” as the issue is ignored both by the media and politically.
