I Made Portraits Whose Subjects And Surroundings Express Intense Emotional Narrative (18 Pics)

I worked in nursing homes and was appalled by the concept of people ending their days bound to a bed, unable to move or see sunshine and in pain. I had a friend who was severely neglected in one. Nursing homes and the warehousing of humans needs to end. Horrible things happen when states cut costs at the expense of human lives. This country needs to do a way better job at caring for its most vulnerable residents with in home care or more assisted living facilities. Everyone deserves privacy, sunlight, the freedom to move and to feel "at home."

I work in a nursing home and these smiles are the best

In a country that gives...oops, I mean 'loans' millions and billions of money to other countries, you'd think we wouldn't have people in a situation like this. Most people I know, including myself, are two paychecks from being homeless. God help us all.

This would make a wonderful wall mural, a reminder to all that this could be anyone at anytime

So sweet ♥️!

Dance baby dance

This picture looks very vintage!

Hangin out in the garage?

I wish that this picture was in color, so I can see what color those pretty eyes are 😍!

This picture looks like it was taken in the 1950’s. So, pretty!

Where´s the diner?

Handsome young man

People first, people. He could be a belt wearing church goer too. People are many things.

This is emotional because people actually went to a library to look at the paper books?

Exposing yourself in public is not cool

This pic is beautiful!

It's not often we see praying in public. Love this

Are they though? Could just as well be looking at menus.

Looks more like sudoku to me.

I'm so sorry 😞

Straddling the line between "the difference between liberty as the freedom to act and liberty as the absence of coercion."

Don't get it

Brainwashed.

Why are old people emotional? This generation, I tell you. If they arent bashing the boomers, theyre crying about them.

Great!

I'm not a tattoo gal, but that one looks amazing

Clap therapy?
