“Our Fantastic Death by Crayons”是由美国摄影师 Victor Koroma拍摄的照片系列。在画面中，象征着死亡与毁灭的手枪与象征着创造与年轻想象力的蜡笔被放置在一起，这两样看似对立的事物共同反映着美国当今社会对于枪支管制问题，尤其是大规模枪击和袭警事件的思考和争论。美国宪法第二修正案为公民赋予了保留和携带武器的权利。

Our Fantastic Death by Crayons is a series that juxtaposes a tool that symbolizes death and destruction with a tool that symbolizes creation and youthful imagination. Both tools coexist though they are opposing forces and are a reflection and critique of the gun control issues in American society’s constant gun debate. Especially now with the rise of mass shootings and police violence. The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution gives people the right to keep and bear arms.

摄影师试图通过这一组照片来对这种权利提出质疑：什么样的工具会帮助我们巩固（或是摧毁）我们的社会？我们的公民更应该掌握哪种武器？是带来破坏的武器，还是能够激发创造的武器？这是一个基于不同语境提出的问题。彩色的蜡笔替代了原本具有杀伤力的弹药，或许这能够慢慢地颠覆我们对于手枪和武器的固有印象。

This series questions that right by asking, which tool helps build or destroy a society? Which tool do we value more? Which arms do we want the hands of our citizens to bear? A tool that sparks destruction or a tool that sparks creation? This question is asked by recontextualizing. It replaces the ammunition fired from a tool that kills with ammunition that creates. And also slowly subverts the ubiquitous image of a gun.
