Informal statment for those who misinterpret Last Words.

As I am aware that the subject matter of Last Words can be perceived as offensive I have decided to provide an informal statement for those who have a misunderstanding of the project.

I am aware that the material may look offensive however the images are of fictional suicides and therefore every element of this image has not been based on anyone's death.

The project has been created with the intent to raise awareness of suicide regardless of character and appearance, research shows that many people who appear happy, and look healthy commit suicide. Suicidal victims and people whom have relationships with those who have lost someone have all said they wish that they just spoke to home as it could of prevented their loss. Art is a form of talking and communicating ideas.

I have taken a lot of time to research the matter and have myself been in a similar situation and have taken inspiration from my mind set to transform it into a creative project, it was my way of speaking about the subject matter.
