Yes, it’s extreme, but I love the work of the Digital Apocalypse that is Chad Michael Ward.
Sinister, sick, twisted, and messed up are words which can be used to describe his series of portraits. These pieces lie on the borderline between art and hardcore eroticism. ‘Digital Apocalypse’ is truly the perfect name.
This aside, there is something about the way he photographs which draws your mind away from the visceral nature of the images, allowing you to only see their strength and beauty.
