Let me let you love me

This is another project where I combine minimal instruction with observation from an almost outsider's perspective. The people in these photographs are my friends and even though these photographs are staged, I let the dynamics of their relationship play out before me with as little interference as possible. If I must put this into words, this set of photographs lies somewhat at the crossroads of how socio-cultural dynamics and sexual politics surface in (heterosexual) relationships that I have observed in oriental societies. The four Ws and one H of "touch" and "emotion" is a very complex idea that I like to compare; what I have experienced and what I observe.
