Artist's Comments


In the game of war there are only losers
Fighting for the right to lose less
People can decide to fight or not
But nature don't have that prerogative
Being dragged into war for survival


****

Taken during my Military reserve duty in Jenin, Palestine (we can call in Palestine by now). This is an Israeli settlement left from the time this land was still Israel. Israel sends soldiers to defend and secure this settlement from harm and terror. The fences are there to help and protect the settlement. Regardless who is right in that fight, I wish nature didn't need to suffer.

Please, no comments about politics.
This is not what this piece is about.

this is so striking! I am so sorry and so angry about the things that we people do... I wish that some of us could have the power or maybe the guts to stand up!

It's no wonder that they are eaten by wolves...

Love is like War,
Easy to Start,
Hard to Finish,
Impossible to Forget.

Very apocalyptic work with the incredible atmosphere and amazing subject. And because of the fact it looks so futuristic at the same time, it goes directly to my :+fav:s.
Well done, as always ;).
