Reflections is the beginning or the end of an interaction. It is the moment captured in between. The viewer's detachment from the flow of interaction ambiguates the moment, irrelevant to any temporal queues. Reflections is about the visceral and the sensory, an encompassing discovery about stimulation of the body as well as the subconscious.
Abby and Andre are working collaboratively to create a language to express intimacy, partners in the interaction on one side and documentors on the other. The aim is to understand and celebrate sexual expression, giving it the opportunity to evolve as a natural act. They offer an exclusive look into spaces rarely accessible to the public where sensuality occurs, traveling internationally to capture the action of seeing and being seen.
In these encounters, awareness drives the narrative about human connection. Drawing upon French humanist street photography Henri Cartie-Bresson and Sabine Weiss, the work is an account of the every day contrasted by the fleeting romance of a brief time spent together. The work shows a softness and tenderness, an understanding of how, what and where to stimulate. Witness how actions reflect one another. And as self-awareness oscillates how we reflect upon those actions.
