Photographer TW Jonas created this new series for today’s exclusive NAKID feature editorial titled, ‘Litanies, Prayers & Epiphanies‘.
This project consists of invocations and lamentations that address two “deities”: sex and death. Through the affirmation of everything that is erotic and of the inexorable end, the commonplace and the banal vibrate more intensely. It is this prayer, sometimes monotonous or plaintive, that leads us to the revelation, not that of the mysteries and the divine will, but that we are the children of sex and death.
TW Jonas (Tiago Jonas de Almeida) is a chemist and a PhD in molecular biology. He started photographing under the influence of his friend Elias Santos, an artist from Bahia, Brazil, whose nude pictures inspired him because of its colors, vigor, and strangeness. Self-learned photographer, he has been taking pictures for at least 20 years.
