European and American photographers who love to take pictures of corpses.

No, I brought medicine. Sue said that if we are too scared, many things can't be crossed. There is an American photographer, Joel Peter Vitkin. He grew up in the slums of Brooklyn, new york. When he was 6 years old, he witnessed a car accident. A crushed little girl's head rolled on his foot. This childhood experience influenced his later creation. All his works explore violence, pain and death, pointing to deformed people and human pathology. A reporter asked him why he didn't want to shoot pure things, because he thought it would be vulgar. He said that pleasing things are easy to do, but just like using an automatic camera, I can't get enough of them. My work needs to go to the light, but it must go through the darkness first.

I like this sentence that Sue said very much. I'm a photographer, too, but I don't take pictures like Joel. I don't shoot men who hang themselves by their testicles, dead dogs with fruits and vegetables in their wounds, living people without limbs, and kissing dead people's heads. If the darkness lasts too long, it will make us feel cold. Something I've always wanted to shoot.

You mean this?
