Suicide is the prescription of the masses to alleviate obstacles in one’s life the easy way. It is also the destruction of one’s self as well as the ones around them. In this series I am interested in transcending the paradigm and act of suicide and the various methods in-to an everyday thought and activity.
More people think of the act of suicide than actually performing the self-harming act. Within this series the act of suicide is instituted into everyday activities such as reading a novel with a plastic bag over their head and changing clothes with a noose around their neck. The muted color palette emphasizes the demeanor of the act and the implications of self-immolation.
This is the first series that I used hot lights, and it is also the first time I created staged scenes.
