This is the online home of Brian — photographer, provocateur, and, in his own assessment, the foremost living authority on the overlooked topography of the body. The work inside is frank, adult, and entirely unbothered by your comfort. Certain jurisdictions, still nursing a four-hundred-year Puritan hangover, require Brian to ask, however reluctantly: are you at least eighteen years old?
A WORD FROM THE ARTIST
On the brown eye, and our estrangement from it.
I have spent the better part of a decade arriving at a conclusion the rest of the world was too comfortable to reach on its own: at some point in the last several centuries, we lost our relationship with the brown eye. Not through injury. Through inattention. We groomed it, medicated it, and agreed, quietly and collectively, to stop looking at it honestly.
I am reversing this, alone if necessary.
For nearly a decade, working without institutional support and without waiting for permission, I have photographed the posterior threshold across bodies, breeds, and conditions of light that lesser practices consider beneath them. Nothing the body does honestly is beneath serious inquiry.
What follows is not spectacle, and it is not asking to be liked. It is the pure expression of what I see, offered exactly as I made it.
