Passing Strangers

Walking through oblivion.

 

Our minds eye filtering, interpreting, controlling our visual ignorance

 

Condemning and exonerating strangers through a transient green gaze.

 

Subconsciously filing them into a misjudged character portrayal.

 

Painting their personality with usurped traits of yellow, cyan and magenta.

 

Filling a blank canvas white.
