Described as a study in desire, FATHER is a latest photobook from British photographer Harley Weir featuring portraits, nudes, still-lifes, and full body photograms nearly all of which have never been seen before.  Speaking in regards to the latest book, Weir says it’s an exploration and worship of the male body – although the term male covers the entire spectrum all the way in which as much as “women that discover as women.”

Intimate and raw, Weir’s photographs portray the body at its most visceral as flesh and hair are unflinchingly captured. “It’s hard to know what you fully desire as a lady when almost every thing sexual you may have seen was made by a person. I all the time desired to make the type of things that I discovered sexy so I could feel that desire was mine too,” she says. “[The book is] fascinated with desire, finding people beautiful and attempting to open up those confines that men and girls share in relation to gender roles and all things sexual.”

FATHER is published by IDEA Books and launches at Dover Street Market London on May sixteenth in a limited edition of just 1000.
