From the artist: “Using information gleaned from online communities, I locate and photograph sites where men meet for furtive sexual encounters in public parks. In these lush settings, the overgrowth blurs distinctions between what we consider public and private realms, and nature becomes a complicit part of this taboo sexual activity. In contrast with the sterile tameness typically associated with parks, this world proves to be wild, seductive, and darkly beautiful.”
