I was drawn to this setting by its colors. The Bolivian flag is red, yellow, and green, echoing the coloration of this building and its huge bags of soy piled inside. The future identity of any country rests upon its children, and Bolivia is no exception. This toddler briefly escaped from the grasp of his mother, and I framed him as he symbolically wanders alone amidst pale versions of the colors of his nation. He was angry, and instinctively tries to strike out on his own at this moment. My interpretation blends color, emotion and scale to symbolize both a nation and its children in search of an identity.
