What they said about IMAGINING INTIMACY at its November 2011 launch at the SHOUT LGBT Arts Festival in Birmingham

“Sexy, saucy, stylish, provocative, challenging, fun…”

“Some beautiful tender moments, visually and through the text. Great concept. I hope many get to see it (and hear). Enjoyed the humour as well. Touching.”

“Cracking”

“A tense and evocative installation, with beautiful imagery I enjoyed the honest recounting of the interaction, which started as uncomfortable but ended really intimately. An interesting investigation.”

“immersive and enlightening. Beautiful work.”

“Exciting, warm, soothing. Well constructed and intimate work. Beautifully photographed.”

“Strong yet delicate. Beautiful.”

“Tender and intimate. Beautiful photography. Very engaging.”

“Images were powerful; the audio disturbing.”

“The innocence, questioning and inhibitions of the models made the experience erotic but human. Beautiful photographs, done in a tender way. Totally connected with the whole thing. Thank you!”
