Photographer Jonathan Hobin on Q

Ottawa-based photographer, Jonathan Hobin is a polarizing figure in the visual arts community. His work has earned widespread acclaim from critics, but it had also been dubbed exploitative and voyeuristic. He is probably best known for his exhibit "In the Playroom" where children pose in tableaus representing headline news stories. His latest exhibit is entitled "Little Lady/Little Man" and it's his most personal work to date. He joins Jian on stage at the Bronson Centre in Ottawa to talk about it.
