Almost without noticing our culture is drifting away hijacked by the agents of globalization in their attempt to reach every corner of this world, forcing unwanted migrations and creating lonely souls along the way. This is a journey with no return.
Paul Teolis from Toronto, Canada won the HP 2006 Photo Contest: Imaging a Global Culture with his picture “Graffiti Penguin”:
which depicts a penguin overshadowed in its natural habitat in the Antarctic by what looks to be an oil storage tank covered in graffiti.
Our hope is in the realization that every single element of creative activity contributes to our global culture and that while it may seem as if nobody is interested, these manifestations have persistent journeys beyond our reach. They tend to travel and open the dialog with unknown communities. They are the universal language that may, one day, awaken the sense of unity.
