Self Portrait with Jeff Stryker - Limited Edition of 20 Photograph

Each time I move to a different studio, I experience a falling out of my creative ideas. It is as if I'm not sure I am allowed to make work in the new space. So, to counteract that, I always start with some self-portraits. Self portraits have played a pivotal role in my work from the beginning.In fact, even images that don't appear as self-portraits, are still self expressive, and tell my story. In these and subsequent self portrait projects, I'm exploring what it means to display my body, that of an older gay man who is part of a queer culture, which glorifies youth and beauty. Indeed, many older gays simply feel invisible. In this work I explored notions of visible and invisible, real and imaginary, as well as a dialogue of some of the various subject matters that have made up my work recently, such as dolls and mannequins. In addition, the work expresses a dialogue in my head, in my fantasies.
