Both parties consent to someone submitting and another dominating. This act of alchemy is unique and offers something that can’t happen in vanilla sex. In its highest polarity the two become a union. There are several Dom/sub relationships and the one that I find the most appealing is Daddy/boy. The Daddy offers love, support, guidance, and discipline when needed. The boy offers loyalty, service, obedience, and the ability to be taught as a form of submission. In a Daddy/boy relationship I’m able to have a loving and affectionate relationship while exploring BDSM. This series of eleven photographs gives an intimate look into a BDSM scene between Daddy and boy. Brooklyn based photographer Benjamin Fredrickson captured the images using 35mm film on location at the Tom of Finland Foundation in the Pleasure Park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/8dfdf06b-7a73-465f-84e7-2ddde8fd1c0b/baby+boy+jpeg.jpeg Content - Baby boy is a multi disciplinary exhibition that explores leather identity, culture, and sexual expression. Artist Donald C. Shorter Jr., who identifies as a leather boy, wanted to create works that focused on the lived experience of the submissive. Three original works dive deep into the world of Daddy/boy power exchange relationships and BDSM. It unfolds in three parts which include photography, film, and theatre performance. “Yes, I want people to be turned on by the images I’ve created but I have also been intentional about prioritizing the humanity of my subjects.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/4bd6b783-523c-40d8-8bd3-2d899f6002b0/IMG_3094.jpeg Content - Daddy’s boy Written and performed by Donald C. Shorter Jr. is a one act play that combines spoken word and BDSM. It’s a story about a boy who just wants love and to be loved in return. The two main characters are Daddy and boy. We meet them in a dungeon engaging in BDSM. Here we are able to see their unique bond of trust, honesty, and communication. The play examines the parallels between the boys biological father and leather Daddy. The main question for the boy is will he find the love he desperately desires? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1501067145533-5DIBIGJGRMFLSRD2DQ17/Sasha+Drag+Performance+1.00_03_36_19.Still008.jpg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1533967440578-ENROM919FA8BFH1CEZZI/IMG_0707.jpg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1493004018659-Z8P0BU3SANSH3FX75FAY/IMG_0058.JPG Content - San Francisco A video postcard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1563307354304-HJB5REG6RJLHK7UMFFDV/nmfs+still+4.jpg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1579403119087-GMKJM3UWBFG287GBFERX/5CDE0288-750E-4442-B1C2-3ADCC5F6C5A3_1_105_c.jpeg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1617315280048-4FLQ8NGJ2IIAIYQVVR8Z/image.jpg Content - THE POWER OF WE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1662488445297-37CYVE6F0WVQJHBRD7VT/image-asset.jpeg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1666506468279-72GI9CVRNI0321AIDQ3Y/6E77671E-E7DF-4B56-960C-E7B51DCBA826.jpeg Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58a90db520099e74878edaa6/1638670426286-BE8SYDIWH3S9QP4H25B8/image-asset.jpeg Content - LESS THAN 8 (2015) This piece investigates disruption of the body while deconstructing gender norms found in concert dance.
