I translated numerous catastrophe images into artworks. The world we live in is easy to create an image.Most people have light cameras, including mobile, that take only seconds to take high resolution pictures. Susan Sontag argued that the camera brings the viewer close, too close (Regarding the Pain of Others, 2003). The "terrible distinctness" of the pictures gives unnecessary, indecent information. Light camera movement is easy to produce detailed images and we get more of these images, which make us callous to aggressive photos and forget about social and historical events. However, when the camera movement is translated into painting, the paint is scattered rather than showing the image in detail, making it invisible or other new images. I want to reveal catastrophe images translated into painting, not the image shown without ethical considerations in the mass media.
