The people of modern, consumer-capitalist societies that have given up their innate identity and passively accepted the distorted desire that exists all around them in all forms including TV, Media and Internet.

These media of mass communication have now occupied people’s minds with relentless exposures and the afterimage of these media linger on in their minds. While it seems that the overflow of these images and information in our society continue to violently strike our minds, yet the people living in it seem to have adapted to living in such a flood and have forgotten to think beyond the boundaries of the media they are exposed to. I wish to refresh the fact that the mass media has become the ruling party in our minds with forced images. Moreover, what’s left of such process are false, imaginary images that transcend the reality, leaving the general population with less judgement and more dependence upon the mass media. So my ultimate aim is to remind us all that the people are being intoxicated with too much media, images, and texts and are being buried under the superficial surface filled with images.
