Photographer Nicolas Guerin has taken to the roughness, the gritty raw roots of seduction and desire in this editorial “Object of Desire”

Inspired after the 1977 film of the same name, Guerin has created something truly remarkable here.

One of the great concepts within this vision is the ‘faceless’ males, as if hidden from the sin and temptation, hidden from the objects that they possess.

The tantalising, alluring imagery is shown lust through the models made into objects trapped by the rope work and latex that they are kept in. The raw, noisy black and white imagery bringing out the temptation and creating these Objects of Desire.
