Thrown away London, ON June 2023 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
On the one hand, it’s a depressing reminder of a particularly dark facet of human behaviour. This notion that we can mindlessly toss things wherever we wish is something I’ve just never understood. People simply don’t care, and it’s beyond sad.
On the other, it’s an eye- and soul-grabbing scene, an iconic brand crushed into nuanced, textured perfection that just begs to be remembered in some way.
The story of humanity’s impact on the world around us is a complex, messy one. However it plays out in any given moment - ugly, beautiful, somewhere in between - it deserves to be told.
One hopes the ones doing the tossing have enough soul left to learn better.
