Deventer, The Netherlands: R. Philip. 2006
Synopsis: For this photographic investigation of male prostitutes in the Netherlands, the artist wanted to find out what existed between the media stereotypes of either drug-addled street hustlers and immaculate pretty boys resting in baroque bedrooms. In this book, the photographs are printed in-between sealed pages of floral wallpaper. The pages are perforated along the edges, allowing the reader to tear them to access the private images in a process that heightens the sense of a surprisingly intimate viewing experience.
