trivial headlines, death and destruction: two days of front pages collaged together
if destruction is art, collaging is its most polite form, or so I thought until seeing these. scott kelly and ben polkinghorne’slatest series ‘the news before the storm,’ juxtaposes papers the day before and of world tragedies. 9/11. princess diana. london bombings and tsunamis — a common thread between these, scott and ben remind us, is how trivial our worries are before sobered by catastrophe.
