Dalla quarta di copertina

Fotograaf Gert Jochems heeft de laatste drie jaar intensief gewerkt aan een reeks beelden over seksualiteit in Vlaanderen. Zijn vorige projecten (onder meer RUS) werden erg goed onthaald.

Met een bijdrage door auteur David Van Reybrouck.

"Hoe kijken naar deze beelden? Met wellust of met walging? Met wanhoop of ontroering? Met heimwee of met hunkering? Alles kan. Maar misschien nog het meest met die zeldzame, archaïsche en in tijden van hyperconsumptie nagenoeg vergeten grote emotie: met dankbaarheid. Fotograaf Gert Jochems heeft het onmogelijke mogelijk gemaakt. In tijden van pornoficatie en overbelichting van het volmaakte lijf heeft hij seks weer duister, geheimzinnig, koortsig, troebel, vettig en verwarrend gemaakt. Dat is een geschenk voor het leven."
