S*x, sensuality and s*xual expression have been warped and co-opted by patriarchal, heteronormative ideas of worth and value, and with that, our ideas of our own s*xual selves.
This project aims to reimagine a world in which our primary s*xual relationships are with ourselves, and our s*xual expression is free from these restrictions - insofar as that is possible.
It is a collaborative effort between photographer and subject; each subject was asked to imagine what an ideal depiction of their s*xual self would look like, and together developed a narrative which helped create the photo. Each subject has written a short piece to accompany the photo, and provide context.
There will be a talk with a few of the subjects, and with the audience, discussing s*x, sensuality and s*xual expression, and how we approach that side of ourselves.
Some of the photos will be available to order on the day, and after the event through Instagram.com/lexxiroussos
