V for Voyeur
by Marni Horwitz

"Even if a subject or a moment is not beautiful, it is an important and interesting moment to describe," writes photographer Marni Horwitz in her artistıs statement. Indeed, in some of her photos, physical attractiveness seems an afterthought. As in sex, itıs the intimacy of this series that provides the heat. "I never feel these images are voyeuristic," writes Horwitz, "because I am always collaborating with the person I am photographing." At times, she seems to be almost right on top of her subjects, or under them, an integral part of the action while remaining a separate, objective observer. "Being alone is an important part of sexuality," she says. "It is where so much desire and fantasy grow." — Will Doig
