The photomontage of the last 50 years called ?50 years of shock and awe?? I?ve searched the site but can?t find a link, sorry.
I was just devastated at some of those images. The Iraqi prisoner with a hood over his head trying to comfort his son, the tiny hand of a starving child in the hand of a white relief worker, the mother lifting the body of her dead child to bury in famine stricken Somalia and so many more. At first thought some of them were pornographic, there's always a moral question raised about this kind of photo journalism but the breath of these perfectly illustrated the common humanity of us all which is so easy to forget or brush aside in talk of war or aid. We should always think, there but for the grace of god go I, and my family. I don't know world leaders who have children of their own can look at such images and not think the same. If they did the world would be a very different place..
