When working on a project for uni, I was looking at the idea of how cannabis effects people and the fact they are braking the law by smoking this drug. I was trying to find photographers who had included drugs in their work, and I found Larry Clark who didn't just document a social group taking drugs he was part of it!
The book Tulsa by Larry Clark is a dark gritty insight into what he was doing in the late 60s and early 70s, it shows people taking drugs and playing with guns when high. It is a shocking book to look through but the people in it seem to have a emptiness to them and lost a grip on thing due to all the drugs.
