About ポラエヴァシー (Polaevacy)
ポラエヴァシー (Polaevacy) is a collection of hundreds of images in a small format, almost like a thumbnail, gathered through the pages, creating a continuous of contexts and subjects.
Like in many of Araki's titles, the content of the photos is highly erotic, sometimes crossing into a sexual field, but often staying in a playful intimacy.
