An artist named Jill Greenberg has created controversial portraits by giving lollipops to toddles and then taking them away. She wanted to capture the intense emotions that the kids usually portrays. People might say that she’s committing child abuse but she has made sure that the candy was returned after 30 seconds so it wouldn’t cost harm to the toddlers. Jill mentioned that the toddlers tears reminds her of the anger and helplessness she feels about political and social situation in the US.
Don’t you think there are better ways to get emotional photography than stealing candy from kids? http://t.co/LmhVpU7zYi (via @designtaxi)
