Created Equal... Photographer Mark Laita In America, the chasm between rich and poor is growing, the clash between conservatives and liberals is strengthening, and even good and evil seem more polarized than ever before.

Los Angeles- and New York-based photographer Mark Laita completed Created Equal over the course of eight years; his poignant words reflect the striking polarizations found in his photographs. Presented as diptychs, the images explore social, economic and gender difference and similarity within the United States, emulating and updating the portraiture of Edward Curtis, August Sander and Richard Avedon.

It is a rare collection with the brief introduction to that phenomenon. I personally think this is one of my best works at Designzzz. Many of these pictures can be a great as wallpapers, so do consider making them your background image. For past few weeks, our new writers have bagged quite a lot of praises.
