“If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys” by Pipsqueak 💰 🥜 🐒.

Their topics seem innocent and appealing, but they are actually very serious. This way, they capture attention and hope to make people more aware (and improve the world while they’re at it). ⚠️🌍

It has been proven that people feel the most empathy with images of children, animals en women, in that order. The children and animals in the art of PWH are staring you in the face. 🐒🐒🐒

This captures power conduits that draw attention through striking contrast and effective light usage, taken on Dempster Street. The interplay between the metal surfaces and shadowed bricks creates a stark urban aesthetic.

Rusted iron gate between two red brick buildings closing off the entrance to a backalley, with a large hole in the lower right corner because some of its vertical bars are missing and a sign on it reading: help prevent burglaries, close this door.
