Applause

Aggressiveness: "A reaction to a situation in which individuals feel fragile and insecure."

– ABCMED

Even in the face of the most extraordinary acts, there is always someone, especially on social media, criticizing that achievement.


At the top of this artwork, a screen broadcasts what we should all be doing: applauding. Yet, on the smallest television, in the least prominent part of the image, this is precisely where people interrupt the applause with aggression, bullying, criticizing and attempting to overshadow what is truly commendable.


The sentences are real and taken from different comments on various social media posts.
