I don't think it's an easy job to use children in creepy photography. More often than not you end up cringing instead of feeling creeped out. But with 'The Girl With The Long Hair' Thomas H.P. Jerusalem has captured a truly deep and unsettled atmosphere which leaves a hundred and one questions clattering through my… Continue reading 365 Days Of Dark Art : 306 / Thomas H.P. Jerusalem
I don't know how Yorkshire based project (how often have I featured something from Yorkshire?! This is a special occasion...) Darkher slipped through the net, but to be quite honest, I'm glad it did.

It's hard to believe that 300 days have passed since I began this endeavour. I wasn't sure what kind of art I would be featuring today, but fate led me to this powerful portrait by Australian photographer Eliza Kinchington.
