“It is one of the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive.”
C. W. Leadbeater
Things that are, may not be perceived.
Every thing in life needs a closer look. When you do take the time, you'll realize wondrous things.
Series emulating the photographic style of Francesca Woodman to show how women are often perceived in society.
Artist & Best Friends Animal Sanctuary founder, Cyrus Mejia's show Pits & Perception opened in Los Angeles @ Artology 101 in Glendale. There were several live pit bulls in attendance at the festivities.

"Art can present us with a different view, a new perspective, another way of thinking about things. In this series of paintings of Pit Bulls I’m challenging the current-day perception of these dogs. Not by changing their image, but by depicting them close-up, larger than life, and inviting the viewer to question how they see and perceive Pit Bulls."

The depth perception is a little off here. The cow is cow-sized, smallish cow at least and the dog is medium dog sized.
See the photographer?
Like funhouse mirrors or shadows on a wall, a distorted perception (no matter how well-intentioned...or not) is still just a trick being played on the mind or the heart, no matter how closely it seems to resemble reality - it is not real.
Now do you see the photographer?...or just that distorted reflection of who I really am?
Until you turn away from that temporary distortion, you cannot see the real ME
...and then, if I allow you to, look into my eyes...now do you see what is real?

One of the things that bothers me most is the cookie cutter expectations we live by. Every single day were tested to be people we arent, because the things we say or the stuff we do isn't good enough. We don't fit the "standards". How you talk, what you wear, who you're friends with is all being seen and judged by these people who picture this world where everyone is this carbon copy of these perfect few people.
to show that everyone has their bias, everyone has their stereotypes, everyone has their window through which they see the world, and around each window there are flaws that we dont see cause we have our face pressed against the glass, judging and criticising.
