No Limits
A creator of erotic worlds, sometimes sinister often of an
incredible beauty. Manuel Laval's visionary approach of sexual
interactions without limits, even without the the rules of our
natural world, is an unbelievable experience.
His usage of photographic and cinematic techniques is very
experimental. Lights, colors, structures and rhythm are used for
the creation of his surreal intense works. Personally I like the
non polished result. It gives you the feeling that your almost
part of the creation process. It does not have the distance in
usual erotica art we are used to.
The concept of his work, if that would be something to capture
in a few words, is based up on the taboo we have for the
explicit usage of genitalia in art and movies. He refers to this
as the Gap in our culture. A society that is based on
partnerships and sexuality but that is afraid of showing it in
an explicit way. In his work he is trying to do the opposite. In
his work you will be confronted with with images of vagina's and
penises in the most direct way you can imagine.
You could think, well I have seen lots of explicit porn pictures
and movies. What's the difference? Well I would think of porn as
a fast, easy and repetitive sexual experience. Kind of eating a
hamburger at one of our beloved food chains. Nice, nothing wrong
with, but digested in 5 minutes. This is really something
different, to stay on the food side, more of eating in a new
undiscovered restaurant. The food on your plate looks familiar
but the taste is different, every time you take a bite.
The images here, especially in the movies, burn in to your head.
They make you feel a voyeur, they take you on the strangest
erotic journey of your life. And I can not point to it enough if
I say, hang on and enjoy the ride.
