Menace

  • Photographer
    Michal Sikorski, Poland
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

Main model is my son Maks in a role of menace boy. In one way this series is very personal for me, because I tried to capture a real nature of my son, who is a very vivid and playfull boy. On the other hand these photographs are very universal because they touch the essence of childchood. What does it mean to be a menace? Who decides that some child is considered to be a menace? Maybe it is only us adults seeing it that way? Maybe it is only us adults that try to make children fit in to some certain roles that society created for them? Let the kids just be kids then and be menace sometimes.
