Recordings Bello presents orgasmic moment photogram—climactic joy with lover Bello collected and revealed on light-sensitive paper. Rey names this sporadic intimate encounter, creating personalized record within broader archive of sexual experiences with different men. The photogram materializes shared ecstasy as visual artifact where bodily fluids become evidence of peak moment, transforming ephemeral orgasm into permanent photographic testimony that identifies specific participant in artist's erotic history.
Recordings is a collection series of experiences with different men who have passed through my life sporadically. During this process, I collect the peak moment of joy, the ecstasy of orgasm, on a light-sensitive sheet of paper, which is later revealed and recorded.
