Harsh but brilliant way to remind people of where they are when they take selfies.

Harsh but brilliant way to remind people of where they are when they take selfies. And I don't think it is too much to ask of people to respect what a memorial or cemetery or gravesite represents if they are going to photograph it at all. And taking a photo is very different from taking a selfie. Some pieces of history should not be treated casually, even if the artist of the memorial doesn't care.

(There are a few selfies still up at the linked site within the article. They may be very distressing and the juxtaposition the artist created may also be very distressing.)
