Preservation is an admission of guilt in an impulsive world preoccupied with things on mass, competition and consumption. These self-acquired landscapes are an exploration of the perversity of mass consumption and the disenfranchised youth facing the consequences of our ills.

Each image was crafted through multiple exposures and digital imaging software.
