Lip Sync to a Car Crash
"Lip Sync to a Car Crash" is a photographic series that explores the complex and often overwhelming issues of our time, including political division, the Covid-19 pandemic, social unrest, the Black Lives Matter movement, and more. The title, "Lip Sync to a Car Crash," refers to the idea that these issues have become so ubiquitous that we have become numb to them, and the visuals have become second nature, much like lip-syncing to a song.
The series features literal and metaphorical images that capture my raw emotions and experiences as I navigate through these complex challenges. The photographs challenge us to confront the reality of these issues, which are often hard to look away from but have become so common that they have become part of the background noise of our lives. The series invites the viewer to question their own complacency and to consider the impact of these issues on individuals and communities.
Through this series, I hope to spark a conversation about addressing these issues and inspire a sense of activism and social engagement. Around every corner in America is a familiar collision of the divide, the photographs serve as a reminder that, as a society, we must not become numb to the suffering of others and must take action to bring about positive change.
