3/3 CW: suicide Around 1962, Arbus started to use a twin-lens reflex Rolleiflex, a camera which allows the photographer to look through the lenses from above. Consequently, there is no barrier between the subject and the photographer, which contributed to Arbus’s connection with her subjects. She became obsessed with clarity and started to use a flash even in broad daylight, given a feeling that her subjects detach from the backgrounds. After experiencing several depressive episodes during her life, in 1971 Diane Arbus committed suicide. Her work and its unique strangeness, however, continue to influence artists, photographs, and filmmakers. She has been considered one of the most influential artists from the XX century.
