"Don't tell anyone, it's a secret" What makes a secret a secret? If only one person knows, it's just a thought. It becomes a secret when you tell someone. But, how many people changes a secret into a known statement? At what point is it no longer a secret? The central idea of my photo is about the fact that no secret ever stays a secret. 

​

I chose the characters to be teenagers in this photo because that is the primary population that gossips. The megaphone is an ironic symbol for outing the secret since it's used to make things louder so everyone can hear. The character is depicted as telling a secret to the other character through a megaphone, making it known to everyone. This is commenting on the fact that word always gets around. In today's society, nothing ever stays a secret. One one person knows, it's just a matter of time until everyone knows.
