"Strapped"



Strapped is a series that speaks to the anthropocentric views that have fueled the expansion of the consumerist culture.

The depletion of non-renewable resources as an eventual reality leaves us turning out our pockets in search of answers. Even in the face of such imminent danger, we are reluctant to change our ways until the consequences of past decisions finally envelop us.
