NY ARTS MAGAZINE FEATURE
Check out the article "RIOTING FANTASIES", about myself (alongside self portrait: HE-VENUS) which is featured in the newest November/December issue of NY ARTS Magazine.
Rioting Fantasies
"I have always found erotica to be the most stimulating type of activism. It appeals to every aspect of myself: the artist, the dreamer, the lover, the exhibitionist, and the rebel. As the artist, it only made sense to explore these aspects of my sexuality and myself from both sides of the camera. With responsibility to my vision, through my eyes (and body) I want to express the male body in a challenging, yet sensitive way—giving the viewer a unique opportunity to step inside a stylized version of my own sexual fantasies....

REMEMBER SUMMER?
It was not so long ago, but summer seems like but a sweet distant memory. Since it's so fucking cold here in Montreal, lets warm up on a little summer reminiscence:
Last August, my series "Android" was displayed in the Summer 08 "Sensual or Sexual?" issue of the Paris-based magazine Pref Mag No. 27.
The photos are accompanied with an article about me, and some of my thoughts on the piece; However, it's in French. I DO know what I was thinking when I was first sketching out this series (as all my series start as illustrations), and the gist is: Technology is addictive. Rapid technological advance is suicide. Eden can be considered as pre-industrial world, the long stillness before the machine, and the like. This was but one of the series I shot along this line, while the others are pending publication.
Android is a robotic boy misinterpreting humanity, as he aspires to it. Here is the full series, with a few that hadn't been published in the magazine. For information on how to acquire my limited edition pieces, please contact my gallery: Envoy, NYC.
