I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the photography skills and texture packs used in these images. I wanted as well to share this meaningful quote: "Photographers often turn their lens toward disenfranchised or struggling areas to raise awareness about inequity and unfair policies." While violence such as this has historically been the cause of many deaths, I hope that we can use such art to bring us closer together as a community and a people.
Rebirth is an important step in every caterpillar's life. There is no shame in being a caterpillar, cocooning yourself, until you can emerge a beautiful butterfly - if you haven't already been eaten by a spider, or a rat, or wasps.
I wish to thank all participants for their contributions, and I hope that everyone had fun!
