Rational thinking is something that most would claim to have. However, in a massive worldwide pandemic, it is when it is needed the most. It was most unfortunate to then see an avalanche of people rushing to buy out all stocks of essentials, namely toilet paper. Responding to this hysteria, I created two satire photographs inspired by two famous photographs, one of the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant, and the other of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali. The works, by comparing consumers of excess toilet paper to triumphant figures, attempt to highlight the asinine and hysterical actions of the buyers.
