With a unique visual signature, Roger Ballen’s existential psychodramas have maintained their uncompromising independence, vividly capturing the imagination of generations over five decades. These images are unsettling in the very fact that they will not easily resolve to a neat conclusion. The spectres of poverty and violence, while performing their roles with aesthetic absurdity, haunt these images with their tacit implication of complicity. Who is responsible for the dispossessed? Discomfort is a luxury of the comfortable. And why are these apparently alien images somehow so familiar? Is this hermetic world not so much the far-off land of a distant other’s imagination, but that which rests within us, beyond the reach of consciousness?
Roger Ballen speaks frankly about his work and the enigma of the human condition at Talking Pictures.

If the cogito sum is to serve as a point of departure for the existential analytic, we need not only to turn it around, but we need a new ontological and phenomenological confirmation of its content.
Is not the separation of the real act and the ideal content thoroughly illegitimate with regard to the 'actual' judging of what is judged? Is not the reality of knowing and judging sundered into two kinds of being, two 'levels' that can never be pieced together so as to get at the kind of being of knowing?. . . Making statements is a being toward the existing thing itself. . . Representations are not compared, neither among themselves nor in relation to the real thing. What is to be demonstrated is not an agreement of knowing with its object, still less something physical with something psychical, but neither is it an agreement between the 'contents of consciousness' among themselves. What is to be demonstrated is solely the being-discovered of the being itself, that being in the how of its being discovered.

This bloke seemed to be having some form of breakdown. Or he may have been drunk or hungover. Or both.
I took a photo anyway.

Existential deliberation upon the nature of modernity? Social commentary on mankinds unhealthy obsession with observing itself and delineating boundaries? Or just pretentious arty stuff? You decide!
Do you know what life is? It is something that exists right on the horizon between the glow of gladness and the sands of sorrows. It is where we all are, it is where we all exist.
An existential quandary. As a white person visiting a museum about apartheid, which entrance do I use?
Existential thinkers acknowledge suffering in the world and imagine a better way. Existential thinkers tend to value the quality of relationship, rather than status and competition. The character strength of transcending provides existential thinkers with meaning, connection and creativity.Digitalcommons@CllS

In case you forgot or didn't realize, Jack originally worked at the Ginna nuclear power plant although it's hard to imagine what he could have been doing there. It had a lasting effect on him.

A statement of purpose, an existential proclamation, and, given the tends of thousands crowding the quad, an extremely useful piece of forethought.
