it’s amazing how the emotions jump up off the screen!

i’m a little concerned at HOW he made them cry (lol)

I listened to her speak at Semi Permanent 2010. Amazing stuff. To make them cry, the parents of the kids would take their favorite toys away, and do other similar things, so it was relatively harmless.

Imagine if I specialized in photos of distressed animals. People sure love animals — that’s super. So why do we hate our children?

oh~ this is so amazing!!!

As a parent i feel stressed when watching these pictures, what may seem harmless to us (take a toy away) is not at all harmless to a child, specially in a strange environment with a camera pointed at them. For me there’s nothing good about purposely make children suffer emotionally for a good picture. To me these are beautiful pictures with quite low morale behind them…

Yep. Imagine if someone takes your work, house and car in order to shoot a photo if you when crying..

the 2nd from the bottom is the best! haha

… and even if the technique was not harmful [betrayed by the expressions of the children, their only God-given way of indicating distress], another question remains: why will somebody delight in taking and/or viewing these photos?
Bruno above, as a parent, indicates stress… I suspect that is a healthy reaction to the photos. What other reaction is happening that causes somebody to desire or enjoy these photos? and why?
Paul Jubenvill13:37
Weird as fuck. If anything, scary.

Gorgeous! Studied this artist in photography class… and still amazed by this work.

So I have to say, although on an emotional level, it tugs at you to decry this as barbarity. On a pure practical level, there was nothing psychologically significant in taking away a child’s toy, whether as punishment for misbehaving or this current application.
Years of societal denigration of child abuse makes us sensitive to any potential exploitation. This mostly a good thing.

I love the lighting set up and processing.
ProphBundy20:54
The idea that enjoyment or pleasure are the only things photography or art are meant to evoke is kind of laughable. If the pictures distress you, that’s a valid reaction and probably one the artist foresaw or sought.
Megan00:00
Images and videos of dead and dying pre-born infants also ‘distress me,’ but there doesn’t seem to be many artists seeking that reaction… So the artist is okay to provoke unhelpful reactions by expressing perversions when society tolerates it, but not okay to express legitimate and meaningful messages when society would rather not think about it. What a waste of an artist.

I work with children for 10 hours everyday for the last 8 years and these photos are fantastic I never realised how amazing and powerful childrens emotions are! It’s something I see a lot of but have never thought of as beautiful . Children cry so easily but it’s not like when adults cry they just let tears out and then forgot about it 5 mins later. Fantastic, keep snapping :)
