Killer filters
With the help of my project, I want to encourage people to be more aware of their behavior and expose a serious problem.
Every person has a choice and should accept the consequences of their actions.I believe humanity is becoming more mature, cultured, and wise.
How to increase people's awareness while they are throwing cigarette butts, and awaken in them the responsibility and desire to take care of our planet?
Responsibility is the ability to influence the course of events.
30% of the garbage in the water bodies are cigarette butts.
1 cigarette butt contaminates a whole square meter.

98% of cigarette filters are made of plastic fibers.
cigarettes are the most littered item on earth. worldwide about 4,5 trillion cigarettes are littered each year.
the plastic inside cigarette filters can take up to
10 years to decompose.
For the cover, I was inspired by the shape
of the tobacco packaging.
I used vernacular photography in this project, as it takes everyday life and common things as subjects and has no artistic value, which helps to focus on the real meaning.
These photos are communication, visualization
of social unawareness.They were captured by anonymous authors, where plots and objects belong to everyday life.
The research and study of everyday photography are essential for the reflection of the modern culture.
Vernacular photography is an important element in the formation of habits and stereotypes of the worldview.
