“SMOKING KIDS” BY FRIEKE JANSSENS
After seeing that infamous video of a chain-smoking Indonesian toddler, Frieke Janssens created a photography series entitled ‘Smoking Kids,’ which displays tobacco-puffing kids of various backgrounds.
Since smoking is a societal norm among adults, she decided to use children as her subjects to create a powerful imagery that has the viewer focus on the act of smoking itself rather than make assumptions about who’s doing it. Check out the rest of the series here.
p.s. Don’t fret! The cigarettes and smoke are from props!
