E r o t i c   P o l a r o i d s   w e r e   h i s   f i n a l   p a s s i o n .   A decade before his death, he fell in love with the instantaneous speed of the Polaroid camera. Abandoning his other photographic equipment, he started snapping local women as if his life depended on it. His erotic shots explored every manifestation of male fantasy – But with an aesthetic perfectionism that detoured pornography and created instead sexually charged works of art. 

 After his death, two thousand erotic Polaroids were found in his apartment.
