With pretty magic rectangles in their tentacles the aliens have arrived with promises of golden fortunes, but only leaden dreams await. In this invasion the assimilation is chosen gladly by those who can afford, and the war of freedom is fought human on human and not with the sky.

San Francisco à la John Christopher and my own imagination.

Mural at 24th and Capp street as seen from the south side of 24th Street, San Francisco, CA.

This photo is an experiment exploring the line between photography and painting. I left the painted mural as the most “photographic” element while subtly reducing the complexity of the rest of the photo.
