Don't view this as endorsement of kids smoking, tobacco or any of that shiznit. But these photos will make you look twice, guarenteed. Regardless of if it's social, political or commercial, or otherwise, it's very effective art. This is smart, powerful, horrible.

Me and/or my crew have been in Paris, NYC, LA, Seattle, and Salt Lake City in the past 10 days alone. Given that sort of schedule, we don't always have time/ability to cut together a chasejarvisLIVE re-watch (that's why you should always watch live), but this was an absolute must. It was an epic show. Chryde, founder of amazing La Blogotheque/Take Away Shows, was our first guest all the way from Paris. He...
