Redacted Reality

This piece shows how censorship can change the way people understand reality. The newspaper contains redacted information to represent stories, facts, and perspectives being hidden from the public. The censored photograph symbolizes how important events can be erased or kept from view. The fist tied by a red ribbon represents freedoms and rights being restricted, leaving people with less control over what they can know, say, and believe. Together, these symbols show how controlling information can shape public understanding and create a reality that is incomplete, manipulated, and hidden from the truth.
