In 2015, in order to reach a better visual balance in the representation of sex work, I put an advert in a newspaper looking for clients who were willing to pose in exchange of money, many men responded and it became the first chapter of Gentlemen’s Club. For 7 years, I traveled to the cities that have a link with the business to collect 100 images and interviews. The cities are Rio de Janeiro, Havana, Mexico City, Paris, Bangkok, Los Angeles, Lagos, Kabul, Amsterdam and Mumbai.

Prostitution has been presented focusing on those who sell their body. We know all the details of the crime involved and the sweating bodies of the girls trapped in dirty rooms, but the faces and motivations of the clients are still a mystery. The sacred law of supply and demand seems to vanish for this business.

All the men were asked about their first experience, motivations, feelings and opinions, and all the men were paid for their time and for sharing their privacy with an unknown person that is me.
