Clark –
Morris takes us deeper behind the scenes of his photo shoots than ever before, with a 16-minute video that accompanies his revelatory photographs of Mowgli Fin, a poor, homeless, Radical Faerie —”It’s rare to find a young man who was delighted to play with his own appeal, who understood the pleasure I took in lifting his shirt up just so much.”
A writer recently said that my descriptions of the men I photograph are sentimental, overly emotional, even histrionic. I think he’s displeased by the fact that I don’t always present men as rawly as I can in the pornography I produce.
But in these sessions with men they often reveal aspects of themselves that are usually hidden or blocked.
And with a man like Mowgli, how can I say anything that’s true that won’t seem cloying or false to someone expecting porn? Mowgli, who doesn’t own a television or a computer, who wants nothing materialistic, is a welcome mystery in my life. I shot this image as he looked over with obvious love at Trevor. Nothing hidden, nothing denied, nothing feared.” – Paul Morris
