Keith Maiden | Materialism

This angelic looking portrait shows a female student staring compellingly back at the viewer. In the background, there is a subtle image of a noose and down her arm she has the words 'We are the future' tattooed. This piece was inspired by a shocking statistic that 50% of students who commit suicide do so because of debt. The title refers to the cost to a student to go to university imposed by our government, since enforcing fees not grants.
