Aboard the confines of an ancient space hulk, Seth and his Flesh Tearers engage in a brutal struggle against a horde of alien genestealers and their own natures. A hunger drives these warriors of the Blood, one matched by their alien aggressors. Hope remains while the Flesh Tearers can hold onto their honour, but what is the truth that lurks at the heart of this derelict ship and will Seth manage to stave off the rage long enough to discover it?

Kochi, Kerala, India.
This is a re-edit of a previously posted photo from my travels in India. I have an exhibition coming up and wanted a fresh approach to this shot.
This elderly man stood outside a church in Kochi. He asked me for some money and I asked him if I could take his picture. He looked like he was in pain so I asked him about it and he replied, "No pain, just hungry."
It's something to think about.

LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Hunger around the world has fallen significantly since 1990. According to the latest U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) report on food insecurity, the proportion of the world’s population that is undernourished has dropped from 23.6 percent in 1990 to 14.3 percent today - putting the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) of halving that 1990 figure by 2015 within reach.
While the report notes that the current rate of progress in the fight against hunger would actually fall short of meeting the MDG, the heads of the U.N. agencies that authored the report say, “the target can be met, provided that additional efforts to reduce hunger are brought underway, both to address immediate needs and to sustain longer-term progress."

Famine Memorial statue, in Custom House Quay in the Dublin Docklands. These statues commemorate the Great Famine of the mid 19th century. The statues were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie - 1997. New processing. Strangely I didn't manage to replace the first version.

"The lrish Hunger Memorial is designed to raise public awareness of the events that led to the famine of 1845-52 and to encourage efforts to address current and future hunger worldwide. One and a half million Irish were lost through famine related death and the Diaspora. The design expresses a desire to react and respond to changing world events without losing its focus on the project's commemorative intent. Central to Tolle's project is an authentic Famine-era cottage donated to the Memorial by his extended family, the Slacks of Attymass, County Mayo, Ireland. The cottage has been painstakingly reconstructed on the Memorial's halfacre site as an expression of solidarity to those who left from those who stayed behind. From the cottage, visitors to the Memorial meander along paths winding through a rugged landscape thickly planted with native Irish flora-plants often found growing in fallow fields. Ascending to an overlook twenty-five feet above the ground, the visitor confronts a breath-taking view of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island beyond.This landscape is cantilevered over a stratified base of glass and fossilized Irish limestone, presenting a theater of historical and modern sentiments about famine worldwide. Layers of mutable text, appearing beyond touch as shadows upon the glass, wrap around the exterior of the Memorial and into the passageway leading to the cottage while accounts of world hunger are heard from an audio installation overhead.
Brian Tolle is an internationally renowned sculptor and public artist. His recent public works include Waylay for the Whitney Biennel in Central Park (2002), Man's Achievements on a Shrinking Globe in an Expanding Universe for the Queens Museum of Art (2001) and WitchCatcher at MetroTech Center Brooklyn (1997) reinstalled in New York City Hall Park (2003). Using a variety of media, his works draw themes from the scale and experience of their surroundings provoking a re-reading by cross-wiring reality and fiction. In much of his work he uses cutting-edge technology in unexpected ways, blurring the border between the contemporary and the historical."
