IMPENDING DOOM
“We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the
Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that one way or another.”
-J. Robert Oppenheimer
From samurai warriors who crafted their masks to strike fear into their enemies, to the reasoning behind the creation of the atomic bomb, the psychology behind individuals involved in war has always fascinated me. In this series, I delve into the experiences of individuals who have suffered senseless deaths, and the lasting scars that survivors must carry with them for the rest of their lives. The images are inspired by various moments throughout the history of warfare.
