These two paintings by Pawel Kuczynski depicts issues of poverty an inequality. The first photo represents one privilege child playing with toys that spell the word “apple”,perhaps representing how food is often wasted or played with. The juxtaposition of the less privileged child eating the toy apple, signifies the just how that child is hungry.
The second artwork depicting an underclassed individual , using the steps to the ladder of success for a fire to keep warm. Perhaps, the artist is suggesting that while a privileged individual can use steps/tools to climb the ladder to success; someone less fortunate will have to use those same steps/tools or - the time they could have dedicated to using those steps to survive.An example of this could be a poor individual having to work to provide for themselves, while their peers go to school.
