A picture is worth a thousand words. Did you ever hear this popular sentence? I guess you probably did. However, did you ever find a picture that you could really say it without sounding fake and superficial? I guess you would hesitate more before saying: “Yes I did”.

There are a little bit of bright and dark colors everywhere. I like how the incredible number of objects and the colors make me feel lost because it shows me how bad is overconsumption. I think that the picture Intérieur chez Louis-Philippe Yergeau represents really well the short story GOD HAS MANIFESTED HIMSELF UNTO US AS CANADIAN TIRE. First, I
