Allan Grynnerup

Via Libida's gallery:

Allan Grynnerup lives in Denmark where he has been an actor since 1981. It wasn’t until 1990 that he seriously began his interest in photography, largely to learn something about himself and his own sexuality.

“I am still fascinated about how many ways you can define motive in a photo,” he says. “When doing a sexy photo shoot, I always try to find the borderline between the erotic and the pornographic. It might be something as subtle as a slight difference in light, camera angle or choice of lens.

“Erotic expression is of course always difficult to capture. It depends not only on the person perceiving the photo but also on the model who is sending the message to the viewer. It’s interesting to me, the varied feedback I get on the same photos -- a range from joy to indignation. It really does come down to what each person brings to a photo in terms of attitude, experience and history. Naturally, the biggest challenge is to communicate and share the experience with as many people as possible.”
