Know Where You Stand

I love art that provoke your thoughts and perceptions of the surrounding world. It's an incredible ability. Sharing my fortunate discoveries on here will definitely be a norm. Today on my usual Tumblr spree, I found Seth Taras' work titled, 

History Channel Worldwide Brand Campaign, “Know Where You Stand”

1. The Hindenberg Disaster of May 6, 1937 

2. Allied soldiers rushing the beach at Normandy in June 1944

3. The Fall of the Berlin wall in 1989

4. Adolf Hitler touring Paris and standing in front of the Eiffel Tower in 1940

He blends modern day locations with major historical events.

History is a concept that is so captivating when we aren't forced to be graded on it in a school setting. In the modern world, every place we go to has a history behind it; every object that we touch has created memories for someone before it and every idea has been derived from some precursor thinking. Ultimately for me, history makes me appreciate the beauty of how civilisation works and survives - through both joys and pains.
