Assingment #3 - Pain

Hi there.
Again , thank you so so much for all your votes, comments, thoughts and interpretations. Every time before publishing our assignment we have sort of an idea among us, which pictures will be the clear "winners", then we publish them and you come and leave your comments and you turn our world up side down, in many cases completely contradicting our expectations - it's great learning experience, and we are very grateful for it. .

This assignment's subject was - Pain.
...and let me tell you ...it had created a lot of pain - but mostly in our worried heads. For last two weeks we were experiencing creative pain, trying to find the way to approach this subject without falling into trap of becoming overly pathetic, cliche, kitsch or too literal. After all I think that perhaps the most accurate image of pain, would have been if we would photograph ourselves being tormented and struggling with this latest assignment.
"...Soon enough I realized that is difficult to find pain in our society. Although many people are confronted with it ,visible pain is hard to find. I realized that we are very protected and safe from physical pain. You have to dig deeper and spend more time trying to catch the sort of pain our society lives through...
The theme was harder that I thought...
"- Beniamin
Anyway we did our best to come up images of pain, so follow the link at the bottom of this post to visit the photo gallery and see the outcome of our latest creative endeavor.
We greatly appreciate you comments and votes.
