Comments on: Living with War. http://prettyfakes.com/2006/07/living-with-war/ Pouring bourbon on the line that separates art from trash. And then? Setting it on fire.

It is almost a shoe print, but I guess not. It reminds me a bit of <a>Shusaku Endo</a> and his words of Christ from the fumie, "Trample! Trample! I more than anyone know of the pain in your foot. Trample! It was to be trampled on by men that I was born into this world. It was to share men's pain that I carried my cross." And in war more than any perhaps we trample the Christ of whatever beauty or meanings your little Polaroids capture. And how do we break the silence and say no to it all.
