About the Artwork: The Paper Works series of photographs describe the notion of "fear". This photograph depicts an open vampire mouth, with drops dripping from it. In fact, these works are a reflection of covers of Horror and Thriller genre pulp fiction books.
About the Artist: I tend to think the term "troubled youth" deals with general problems and circumstances that prevent integration, or a normative future in our society. Many youths suffer hardships; establish patterns of fear, and of failure. Feelings of fear often motivate us to perform violently or abnormally, but these are only the symptoms. I find the first stage in fear, is not be afraid to be afraid; to understand that it is allowed.
