Imagine your Mother, or friend.
Now imagine them evicted from their home.
Now, imagine them pushing a cart with everything they own: plates, 1 pillow, food, one jacket...
This image of one person...is not about their personal story of falling into the cracks of poverty. Its not about their mental illness, drug use, or the abused life of the past.
This image with no face represents a portrait of everything wrong in America, how we don't care for the sick, hungry and elderly people.
Imagine your life and a cart with everthing you own.
