About Hitozuma Eros 1
The series Hitozuma Eros first started back in 1998. Initially it was a regular column for Sukan Taishu magazine (published by Futabasha). This project was known as one of Araki's lifeworks and it consisted of a series of nudes. The models, were married women.
Hence, Araki photographed hundreds of wives through the years making it a life-long project. Nobuyoshi Araki, who is usually referred to as the Master of Eroticism, creates a playful, ground-breaking collection where he explores sexual fantasies and the female body.
