In the realm of photographic artistry, Alexis carves out a unique space. His profound and raw imagery is an intimate look into his relationships, echoing the iconic Annie Leibovitz’s private portraits of Susan Sontag. Alexis captures his ex-boyfriend—a potential model—in a captivating series that is a testament to the deep affection he has for those dear to him.

Before unveiling this series, Alexis discussed his work with Ghislain Pascal, co-founder of The Little Black Gallery, and editor of the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! books and magazines. This conversation with a respected figure in the industry underlines Alexis’s commitment to presenting his work in the most thoughtful and respectful manner.

Among the 19 evocative portraits, two striking black-and-white images show the couple in tender embrace, a poignant echo of their shared past. Yet, these are but fragments of the broader narrative that Alexis creates, a complex exploration of love and connection, and the highs and lows that characterized their relationship.

Alexis, whom I’ve recently come to know, exudes a deep empathy in his work. This series, an open journey through love and loss, speaks to his emotional intelligence and capacity to love profoundly. So, dear reader, allow Alexis’s work to guide you through this labyrinth of human emotion. Embark on this journey; you may uncover a world beyond your imagination.
