Abstract
Introduction
Artwork is created for a number of reasons. For instance, artwork may reflect the artist's inner conflict as he or she strives towards evolution. At the same time artwork can serve as the artist's interpretation of larger society and culture. In most instances, the viewer, examining the artwork may find it difficult to discern why the artist has created the work. This invariably adds to the work's enigma.
Even though it is often difficult for the layman to understand why an artist chooses a specific subject or medium, there are instances in which the average viewer can discern the reason and purpose of artwork. Such is the case with the photography that has been collected and displayed on the subject of the aids epidemic in South africa. Thanks to the painstaking efforts of photographers from all over the world, the photographs of the aids epidemic have served as the impetus to raise public awareness about the epidemic and educate society about the true tragedies that are occurring in africa. Through the photography of the aids epidemic in africa, collective consciousness is increasing and more support and aid is being provided for countries and individuals suffering with this tragedy.
