Photgrapher Suzanne Opton created billboards of nine soldiers based in Afghanistan and Iraq. She photographed them neck up with their cheek on the ground, and a their face of war. The billboards can be found in various locations in New York I believe. This controversial campaign caught my eye because I have an interest in war and how it affects the soldiers mentally.
Comments on the Soldiers Face website range from disgusted spouses to impressed artists. One theme that seems to be coming up quite a bit is patriatism....Americans need to remember the soldiers for being strong, brave, undestructable. Sure, on the outside, but what about the inside?
