The ugly Truth about Gay Marriage

Mokhorev was the first Russian photographer who opened a door to the fragile and troubled world of children. Since the late 1980s, he has passionately explored the marginal territories of adolescence, revelations of lost childhood, and magical transformations into adulthood. Over the years, he has developed a unique style that continues to inspire many photographers and followers. His first solo exhibition outside of his homeland was in Paris in 1992, right after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It was held within the framework of Mois de la Photo à Paris Photography Festival where he became a sensation, one of the key photographers to emerge from the former Soviet Union

His series "Games Children Play" about orphans and street kids of St. Petersburg attracted tremendous attention. In the US, it was shown in "Changing Reality" at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, in 1991; at the MIT Museum in "Russian Photographers Renewal and Metamorphosis from the late Soviet Era to the 1990s," Cambridge, MA; and in "Russia: Chronicles of Change" at the Southeast Museum of Photography, Daytona Beach, FL, both in 1996.
"Ambiguous Desires" (shown here) considers an age of discovering one’s sensuality, a mysterious metamorphosis from childhood into adolescence. Known for its social crises and emotional tempests, it is also a period when the tacit becomes explicit, when what is recognized becomes understood. Mokhorev possesses a special portal allowing him to enter the complex universe of pubescent youth, and to capture the wonder of innocence and unfamiliar longings expressed by his models. The growth of human understanding and sexual awareness in a teenager is one of the most intricate, amazing, and beautiful phenomena in nature.

Hey boys & girls, I can’t blog too much for the next days cause I injured my right wrist yesterday (no, not caused by extensive masturbation :p). At least there are some good news too: It looks like my best friend can make his alternative social service (you have to do that in Germany if you don’t want to serve in the armed forces after school for 9 months) in the city where I live. So he will likely live with me and my boyfriend… this will be wicked :D
Oh and go over to Hawt Twinks and take part at his vote — maybe he will link milkboys then xD
Um… and a random piece of art… I wish people would stop to ruin their works with such big copyright notes :(
