Cameras, in their silent efficiency, are thieves in the truest sense. With each click of the shutter, they steal reality, distilling it into pixels, cropping its nuance, and rendering it devoid of the context that once gave it meaning. What is captured is not the world as it is, but as it appears, flattened, framed, and often stripped of its raw complexity. The lens turns the world into a series of static moments, rearranged and repurposed, committing an act of visual plagiarism by reproducing something that never truly belonged to it in the first place. The real world, rich in time, emotion, and movement, is reduced to a mere imitation of itself.
