When I was home sick a couple weeks ago, i found an interesting photographic exhibit on the web that I meant to discuss, but then promptly forgot in my feverish daze. The exhibit is titled Intimate Encounters and it features photos exploring disability and sexuality. CAUTION: Many of the pictures feature nudity and are definitely NSFW, so click with care. The photos are frank in their depiction of the erotic lives of people with disabilities and several of them are quite lovely. I admire the people who were willing to pose for these images (most of whom seem to be Brits and Aussies). I’m not sure I’d have the chutzpah to bare my crippled ass for the whole Internet to see. I wonder what kind of reaction these photos get from audiences. And I wonder if the photographer has any plans to shoot in America.
Wow, great find.
It’s great thatg some of us crips are brave enough to express themselves so liberally. Like you, I wouldn’t personally want to do that though…
