The used

The Used – September 2010

‘The used’ is very close to my heart. I had created this back in 2010. It conveys a very strong message, and the meaning of it totally depends on how the viewer perceives it.

There will always be times in life when you would feel let down by someone, or some situation. You will feel betrayed, and you will feel that you have been ‘used’.

It is one of the most depressing thoughts that one can ever feel. When you know how bad it feels to be ‘used’, why would you inflict the same pain on someone else? Let your actions do only as much as you could handle if you would be at the receiving end of the same actions.

About the picture – I did not create and will not take any false credits for it. I just recreated it. The idea, obviously is someone else’s. I found it on the internet, and it appealed to me big time. I decided to recreate it.

It is about a girl who has been used, and abused. For the society, she is at fault. There is nobody to help her. The telephone line is disconnected. Her voice never reaches anybody. And the pain that she carries in her heart stays.
