Sweet 18

Definitely for adults only! The photographs in this volume were all taken without commercial interest or intent of any kind; without paying attention to taboos or respecting what is forbidden. They are real photos, entire stories that have no need for long words. And even though it could hardly be called a “pillow book”, you do risk having sleepless nights after having enjoyed it. I have tried to capture the frank and sweaty atmosphere surrounding teenagers, their charged awareness, as this is what I repeatedly found on my many travels. It was a personal quest that led me far away from my real work. We see young adults (all at least 18 years of age), who become professional models for a day. French and Czech women, Ukrainians, Hungarians and even American women initiate us into the intimacies of their youth, with not too much posing, but occasionally enhanced with accessories of their choice.
