I Am For You Can Enjoy
Through photography and video, Khalil West and Ajamu explore race, visibility, (gay) respectability politics, sexual agency, commodity, pleasure and liberation, by documenting through portraiture a counter-narrative to traditional products of erotic labour and conceptions of queer Black men and sex workers.
