Ukranian model Sergey Sheptun poses for a photograph by Igor Yermakov. Igor contacted me and invited me to “paint” the photograph for a new volume of his book, One Hour with the Model, which has since been published. I chose to use an expressionistic approach to fuse male and female elements in order to represent the nonbinary nature of human sexuality. Thus, the work is a simultaneous expression of sexuality and a political declaration of freedom of expression and LGBT+ rights.
