Paradox. "This is another image for a book review about suicide and depression, The Price of Privilege by Madeline Levine Ph.D. If it weren't for books, suicide and depression, I would not have a career. The book was written by a family psychologist whose aim is to help a specific parental demographic, namely, those extremely wealthy parents whose teenage children are chronically unhappy, angry and apathetic despite their great privilege and affluence. Having empathy for your subject is what makes good pictures and that was the struggle for me here. I decided to depict a family, each in their own world, oblivious, distant. The chandelier is meant to double as a crown, almost like a crown of thorns."
