The first thing you need to know about Marcus Mok?s new book "Liberate" is that there are very few frontal nudity shots.
Instead, the self-taught Singaporean photographer has chosen to shroud his subjects in anonymity, preferring to heighten the sensual aspect and aesthetic form of the Asian male body.
?The impetus for the project was really the fact that artistic male figure photography documented in a photobook was quite uncommon, especially by an Asian photographer,? says Mok when asked how the series of photographs shot over the past decade came about.
?I realized how few images of the male form being presented in a tasteful manner there were, even more so for images of the nude Asian male.?
