Cynic

So this is a hypothetical editorial piece I did for an article in Psychology Today about cynical people. The corroded, cancerous head is no more than a husk; a suggestion of a human form. The idea was something I already had kicking around that turned out to be a perfect fit for this assignment. Ultimately cynicism is a defense mechanism, nothing more than a callous developed from repeated pricks and burns. This took it one step further and showed the cumulative effect.
