The first thing one can notice about this photo is the brain with a needle sticking from it, and a bullet being shot through as it makes a face of pure shock and anguish. The brain is obviously the most important item in the photo, but the contrast between the pasty, white brain with the blood stricken walls surrounding can only make the minor details more clear. Surrounding the brain image are a large amount of what seems to be random, but under closer speculation it appears the words seemed to be organized into a number of contrasting ideas that the normal human being seem seem to despise such as war or greed. Behind the brain, an "I" is emerging through the torn veins that developed. At first, I believed the message of this photo was to say that the "I" in all of us emerges when we allow ourselves to be overcome by hate and gluttony, but the title "I Remain" that accompanied the photo made me think that this photo is saying that even through all the hate and gluttony in the world, one must be able to still recognize themselves at the end of the day. Whether that be physically or mentally, we must keep our identity as a human being.
