Contradiction Lives Of Children In Different Parts Of Earth
Life may be a dream or a nightmare; both can be your reality here on Earth. The world has arrived at a point where innocent people must pay with everything they own, including their lives, for their leaders’ decisions.
Greed and power have infiltrated nearly every country and government, driving duties for the benefit of the ruling body rather than the people it is intended to serve. Our younger generations are the ones who suffer the most, our children, who are caught in the middle of conflict, starvation, poverty, and everything else they are not intended to experience.
This can happen in certain nations, while others have given their inhabitants good living conditions, allowing them to have a normal existence and become responsible future leaders.
However, is it fair that one portion of the globe gets to enjoy their rights while another half of the world goes through each day without knowing where they could obtain assistance? These are issues that must be addressed as a single, united globe. Every child is entitled to a good childhood to enjoy a happy life.
Uğur Gallenkuş has been troubled by this notion. He is an Istanbul-based photographer who depicts the world’s duality, which provides contrasting lifestyles for diverse children throughout the world. He has developed a photo series that has now been transformed into a book by putting his ability and abilities to work.
This contains images of children from both worlds, edited side by side and morphing into one shot allowing the world to see the duality that children experience. These stunning pictures have sparked a lot of debate in the internet community and have been widely shared.
