A young boy in dark clothing sits on a small stool beside a large chicken, calmly smoking a cigarette while gazing directly at the camera. The black and white photograph captures an unsettling domestic scene with stark contrasts, deadpan composition, and a confrontational directness that challenges conventional notions of childhood innocence. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
