Американская мечта























It spells out the words "American Dream".

Russian Esquire put together an elegant online gallery from my project "Sex Machines : Photographs and Interviews" that is up and live this week.

I really haven't thought about that project in a while, except for the folks whom I've stayed in contact with here and there in the years since that project was alive and kicking. I took the entire series off my website once I started getting serious about my commercial career...just too much of a potential speedbump I didn't want to force clients to wrestle with. But...it is there when you want to find it.

so sad i can't read it in english. the russian translation is very disturbing for me to read, though i am russian and could understand it perfectly well. they are trying to present the america as a land of freaks, as they always do, starting from the header "american dream".

hey there yelena-
thanks for reaching out. i'll try to translate it, but i'm hoping it is made up of quotes from subjects, which is how we did the book. we hoped to let everyone tell their story, in their own words, and they would have that power. in english, in the book, i felt real good about it. lemme see if i can make it out in russian.
best-
TA

oh, timothy, you do not need to translate it to russian for me, i can read it fine. i am wondering if you have the original, in english, somewhere? to see how accurate the english > russian translation in the magazine portrayed the speakers. appreciate, yelena

i found the link to the book with the texts online. from the first glance it is clear, that i was correct and the russians, with their way of translating, wanted to twist the words and misrepresent the subject to mark those people as a villains and freaks. sad. thank you for your work and excellent imagery.
