Within the works’ narratives already exists youthful curiosity to sexual experimentation as well as submissive and dominant roleplaying between women, women and men, albeit under the harsh gaze of the male. By changing the gender identification of subjects I am able to exaggerate\/promote further transgressions (homo- and pan- sexuality; castration, death and rebirth, spirituality, laughter…) for the purpose of addressing erotic feelings within the viewer that he\/she might feel to be exposed or exploited.\" - Aaron Sheppard\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eABOUT THE ARTWORK:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe composition in the painting reflect Aaron's meticulous approach.
