Men and their hormones - hard, wild and aggressive. Joe Oppedisano presents them in dark stylised photos that sometimes appear to come from a different epoch but are simultaneously very modern. Readers see a lot of skin, sweat, leather and dirt and will be helplessly drawn to these specimens of raw masculinity. The photos are perfectly set into scene, usually with just a single light source in gloomy places like bars, cellars and stairwells, drawing viewers into a sexually charged demi-world.
