I did this when I was at college (high school in NZ) I think I was feeling a little pressured and intimidated by the approach of adulthood responsibility

(I used myself as the model. I set my camera on the top of the shower and put the timer on) What do you see here? / A girl in her prom dress, crying in the shower, with her last words of wisdom to the world. The message behind the photo is the stress and struggle to thin and beautiful and the pressure that American culture has on her people. The tears shed from being “fat” in high school and being ridiculed for being a size 9 from so many of my class mates was the inspiration. I’m not fat. I have curves. I am a REAL woman, not a 5’9” 120 lb. size 3 barbie. And if you’re not that, you begin to get made fun of, taunted, teased, and told “go kill yourself, fat ass” when youre minding your own buisness walking down the hallway with your boyfriend. With the media today, the barbie-like girl is what’s beautiful in america, and to get somewhere with your life, yo have to be beautiful, and you can’t be full figured and beautiful. I can proudly say that I am 5’5”, 155 lbs. and a size 9 (or 11 sometimes). I am no longer ashamed, and the tears shed are dried and gone. my advice to girls entering high school, or middle school, is what’s written. Nothing more. Nothing less.

”...I felt the weight of the stones dragging me now to one side, now to the other. So it was something more than a principle I abandoned, when I abandoned the equal distribution, it was a bodily need. But to suck the stones in the way I have described, not haphazard, but with method, was also I think a bodily need. Here then were two incompatible bodily needs, at loggerheads. Such things happen. But deep down I didn’t give a tinker’s curse about being off my balance, dragged to the right hand or the left, backwards and forwards. And deep down it was all the same to me whether I sucked a different stone each time or always the same stone, until the end of time. For they all tasted exactly the same.” —Samuel Beckett, Molloy

Bloke walking up stairs of a block of flats at Kangaroo Point in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, carrying a bag. A photo from a photography class assignment in 1994, and one of my faves ever. Dark and enigmatic, but emblematic of single-minded purpose, metaphor of life’s journey. Dig the repeating cellular and tooth elements. He is walking into the maw of the beast. Dig likewise, the directionality implied by the arrow-heads formed, big, black arrows opposing the man’s forward movement, light arrows formed of concrete faces, buoying him upward, corresponding dark spaces threaten to drag back down. Counterposed forces, on the stairs themselves grinding on each other like shark-teeth set to lacerate a surfer’s legs. Somehow he stays afloat. Does he have any choice? Up, turn. Up, turn. His path is layed out for him. Where does it lead? Ultimately, back down—Newton, 1687. Up is a dead end. I could shit on like this for hours. There should be more like this. Please take more? Hand-processed b&w photo, scanned and digitally restored.

God’s wrath for the wicked was poured out on Jesus instead of us the sinners, the King of kings who came down to earth leaving his glory to die on the cross; a shameful death. The weight of our sins was upon his shoulders and climbing up that hill he was thinking of you and me. 19”X25” Prismacolor Colored Pencils on a Bristol Board + 8 Hours.
