Bike Accident

This work is exceptionally strong due to its disproportion. The image shows a woman who seems to have gotten into an accident while riding her bike. Strangely, she is disproportionally larger than the highway next to here which creates a humorous irony. A person of that size could not have been hit by a car that is the size of her hand. Nevertheless, the image of the woman laying next to the highway with her bike beside her is fearful.
