This series uses iconic landmarks of Washington, D.C. to reflect a nation unraveling from within. Through deliberate color grading, symbolic composition, and digital manipulation, these images explore themes of division, disillusionment, and fading democratic ideals. Red and blue light no longer unify—they divide. Once-solid monuments become metaphors for a republic at risk. These visuals are not nostalgia—they are warnings.
