Portraits of Pleasure is a series of still life paintings where, the artist attempts to capture their friends’ sexualities in classical still lifes of each friend’s favorite toy. By painting these plastic toys and rumbling cyber machines they are hoping to open up a conversation about indulgence, what is considered proper, and the importance of enjoying life.
