I think I'll lock my door tonight after seeing 'Children' from Josh Pemberton. Maybe I should confiscate all the cutlery in the house as well.
'Children' is proof that any normal photo can be turned on its' head with the addition of a weapon. Without the knives, 'Children' from Josh Pemberton is just a collection of lonely children who really need to find some friends. With the knives in hand, these children turn into creepy potential killers. It is amazing how the addition of one object can completely flip the whole vibe of a picture.
