‘Loucifer’ from Enyém

Original sold, a few numbered prints available

“but the pleasure of sex work is the pleasure of surviving, thriving, having food on the table and an apartment that's all your own ... getting good wages is the harm reduction of capitalism.”

- Chanelle Gallant, “Fuck you, Pay me” from Pleasure Activism, 2019.

“A labour of love – a refuge from forty-hour work weeks – affording me the currency of time – rest / and / balance – a creative outlet that meets my value set: transgressive care, healing & disability justice

a relational art – a sensual sanctuary for extinguishing fear and shame through new experiences of intimacy – where the body is a wellspring of knowledge, freedom and discovery.

Love,

Loucifer”

‘Humble’ from Enyém.

Original SOLD a few limited prints left.

“The older I get the more I realize that people aren't just one thing. Sex, and sexuality, are no different. The more I explore myself, the more I realize that me, and most of the people I know can, be described in the same way.

I think sex work is represented in society in nothing but a negative manner. Or at least from the perspective I’ve lived. As an adolescent it was never addressed by my family or education system and any light cast on it was that it was dirty and wrong and bad and pitiful. Being on the other side of it now even if only slightly I see how much in control I am of things. It also plays into the idea I grew up with/was passed onto me with regards to sex that sex is done by men to women, and it happens to women. That is perpetuated with societal norms (of my generation at least) with the idea of not wanting your daughter to be old enough to start dating but congratulating sons for having girlfriends. I probably was in my mid 20’s before I even processed the idea of sex workers being male.”
