37. Domino Effect By Mana Neyestani

We simply love Mana Neyestani's art, as it offers such cutting insight into the world's systems. This piece, for instance, shows the audience a child starting a domino effect that leads to knocking down an older man sitting on a throne. It really shows us how a simple and harmless act can lead to something much bigger. Whether those outcomes are good or bad is yet to be seen.

When you take a closer look and decide to ponder over the matter, you will soon realize how something small can leave a huge impact on the world, or even just your own life. In the end, it teaches us that we're never too small to make a difference over time. But it is also a reminder to consider the potentially drastic consequences of seemingly small actions.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
