Insert Stereotype Here...

Insert stereotype here... We often walk past people who are begging or are sitting on the street and we assume their life story. We possibly suggest that by some fault of their own, they are on the street. We must understand that we really don't know anyones story until we take the time to listen. I illuminated the stories of these 3 homeless men because the stories they told were not unbelievably crazy stories and any one person could relate in some way to any of the three stories. Homelessness could be a reality for any one of us, and we must not ignore or neglect those on the street from society. Lightboxes were made to enable the photographs to be well lit and the issue to be illuminated.
