  Untitled I, from We Are Not Home series
  by Kerry McFarland

  Copyright 2005 Kerry McFarland / I started noticing that when the sun would go down, little flickers would light up everyone’s windows in their house. I’d be out walking (I lived in the desert and it was too hot to do so earlier), with all the beauty outside surrounding me, and silence; Then these houses…flickering. Every night, after 5, I’d see the same thing. I wouldn’t see people sitting outside enjoying the sunset. I wouldn’t see people gathered around a BBQ, I wouldn’t see people out walking with their lovers, enjoying one another. Shades drawn, little flickers. I felt the neglect. So much is going on outside, yet many people spend countless hours watching a little box. What about what’s going on right in their own backyard, their family, their city…their country. The complacency is frightening. That is what this series is about.

• Complacency.....
  by Carisma

  I just got back last night and I already will start apologizing if I cannot get through to some of the work posted by you all great frien…

  I just got back last night and I already will start apologizing if I cannot get through to some of the work posted by you all great friends!! I will get there ….please give me time :-D One thing that has been worrying me in the last few days is: Am I getting complacent in my work? have I reached a comfort zone where I feel I am doing well with my work posted? I feel that is lethal! / Having said that I now need to do something about it! And that is where I must ask the help of those of you that will be so generous as to give me their time and, when commenting on my work will also give me the “gory” details of what I could have done better…or where I had gone really wrong!! I have got a thick skin and very open ears, so please help me here and get me out of the complacency I may have reached! If I have improved in the past months I only owe it to you guys! help me to improve more! Love you all as always! XXXCarisma

  by Adrena87

  capable of molding myself / into a wall of others / blending in with the vastness of “them” / rather than being “me” / a sea of complacency / when all i wish to be / is the one that stands out of that crowd / to celebrate COLOR on my own
