The photographs in this series, are a study of contemporary masculinity and a piece of photo therapy in response to the violence that Scarlet has been victim to. Having been harassed, objectified, and abused by various men she has found it necessary to counterbalance the experience by finding vulnerability and goodness in the men who surround her as an antidote. The photographs represent the fruits of this process.

'The Fucking Butch Dudes' (the physical book/video):

‘The Fucking Butch Dudes’ is a small hand bound book that I made in response to the comments and catcalls that I receive on a daily basis. The front and back pages of the book are mono-printed and the inside pages include handwritten quotes made by men, including the police and my doctor.
