Conversations on your Bed focuses on these four people that I’ve had personal relationships with in some form or another. In this first series the topic of intimacy is taking centrefold, in which I talk with four men in their twenties about the condition of intimacy and the instance of being intimate. It is a collaboration between them and myself. We talk openly about the topic and then I transcribe some quotes that came into focus, they then choose a quote that is best suited to what came out of the conversation. Their anonymity is important to create an open and safe atmosphere.
In this series we talk on their bed. We spend the majority of our lives on our bed. It is where we are intimate with someone else and a place of being alone. Sleep happens there – our dreams taking centre stage and our unconscious has time to bring issues repressed into focus. Self-refection is a subject matter that I hope is an excess of what happens in these conversations.
