Yeh, they guy's just got issues - he's spent an inordinate amount of time on images that place young children in situations that are unnatural and inappropriate - this is the crux of the pieces, this misplacing of context is the mechanism of the artistic statements that are being expressed..
The thing is, no one else - at least most people who have a consensual idea of childhood, have any curiosity about the juxtaposition of childhood with the adult themes in which they are set. It is not a part of the psyche that contains any unexpressed or repressed energy - people are not curious about it - people are happy with those concepts being seperate and brining them together like this does not illuminate any darkened corners of the mind, and as such I will declare that it is not art.
Looking at the pictures all I am left wondering about is how much of this is private fantasy and how much it is just a bad attempt at art.
