'Buttocks' is a series of 'portraits' for which Tekahem invites his models to present their buttocks to the camera, up to them to chose the way they want to present it.
Tekahem: "Taken one by one, each image is a bit incongruous. Put side by side, they start making sense: the way the model present his or her belly to the camera, the 'dress code', the colour and texture of the skin, tattoes nomally hidden, all these details reveal something of the culture of the model. My intention is to take this series a few steps further, in different parts of the world to observe the answers I will receive to my simple question: can you show me your belly?"
"As always, I work with the single 1-square-meter format. I'm also looking for extreme sharpness on certain details like the skin texture,a slight duvet, eyes, eyelids... It's fascinating, both tender and cruel."
