First made as a series for an article in The New York Times, this body of work goes into the almost uncharted country of sex after seventy. Intimate, bold, at moments shocking, the pictures look without inhibition at bodies that fall outside the accepted canon and take apart our stereotyped idea of what sex is.

Joyful and emboldening, they are a reminder that the borders of sexuality are not fixed and that the kind of pleasure we want is ours to choose at any stage of a life. An afterword by Naomi Fry stays with what the work implies for feminism.

“The not-young — yes, yes, the old! — can still get hot and heavy. Fleshy, sensate, nearly abstract in their up-closeness, these people are, imagine that, sexy.” — Naomi Fry
