Save Don't Pray
Artist statement about "Save Don't Pray":
I took this picture at school, when the flag was lowered for the 17 students killed in the Parkland shooting. I wanted to choose a flag for slightly ironic reasons, as this is the country whose lax gun laws allowed the students to be murdered. My title, "Save don't Pray", is a call to action. Rather than posting a picture with #prayforparkland in the caption, take action in making our country safer for everyone. The completely colored picture is bright and sunny, which shows a contrast to the gloom in my picture.
