Smoking Children by Frieke Janssens.
“A YouTube video of a chainsmoking Indonesian toddler inspired me to create this series, “Smoking Kids”. The video highlighted the cultural differences between the east and west, and questioned notions of smoking being a mainly adult activity. Adult smokers are the societal norm, so I wanted to isolate the viewer’s focus upon the issue of smoking itself. I felt that children smoking would have a surreal impact upon the viewer and compel them to truly see the acts of smoking rather than making assumptions about the person doing the act. ”
There were no real cigarettes on set. Instead, chalk and sticks of cheese were uses as props, while candles and incense provided the smoke.
You can see the making of video here and see more pictures of this project at the artist’s website here.

Try to imagine yourself in Dinosaur Land. You get your first look at this “six foot turkey” as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like Boo - he’ll lose you if you don’t move. But no, not Yoshi. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that’s when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, -swoosh- from the other two Yoshi’s you didn’t even know were there. Because Yoshi’s a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he licks at you with this… a five foot retractable tounge, like a fly trap, in the middle of his face. He doesn’t bother to bite your jugular like a lion, say… no no. He lashes at you here… or here… or maybe across the belly, coiling like a snake. The point is… you are alive when they start to eat you. So you know… try to show a little respect.
