A Plague of Darkness sheds light upon the sense of quiet desperation currently devastating the children of our society: Black, white, yellow or red. This plague, which we watch morph and transform itself into its differing forms every evening on our nightly news is an equal opportunity destroyer.During a cross-country plane trip, Payack penned A Plague of Darkness. To better illustrate (and encapsulate) the emotional toll this unseeable plague has wreaked upon the emotional lives of our children across the land, he further illustrated this essay with a series of some thirty ’collages’ that will help you see the devastation through the mind (and eye) of the child, which remain hopeful, above all.
