Stories Of The Shattered

Cracks in glass or concrete are often used as a metaphor for the brokenness we as humans may feel. A shattered window may still create a beautiful, shining mosaic on the floor, but the pieces themselves can be incredibly dangerous if handled with recklessness. The malfunctioning, disconnected pieces of one’s inner psyche may create a gorgeous smile when exposed to shining faces, but once those pieces are left alone in the deafening silence and isolation that comes with the nighttime, they can become unbelievably dangerous. In these photos, we attempted to capture the duality between broken, abandoned things and the beautifully tragic stories they may carry with them.
