Synopsis

Nature vs Nurture? Page 3 vs Helmut Newton? Conran vs World Of Leather? Sliding into the warm leatherette centre of socio-biological debate, the aesthetics of erotica and interior decor discourse, Dazed & Confused photographer Supremo Rankin opted to shoot a series of nude studies using a cheap and mildly depressed orange '80s sofa as the exclusive setting. Some of the sexiest models and glamour girls on the planet participated in the mischievous project, willing aiding Rankin in his quest to put a few boundary kinks in the semiotics of eroticism by letting underwear fall onto the apricot upholstery and lips, lashes and cleavage meld with its seams and folds. 'It's about the fact that a photographer can turn a cheap ugly sofa into an object of desire,' affirms Rankin. Retro furniture shops the world over will have much to thank him for. Marking the moment when the couch stopped being synonymous with the potato and made a connection with a different type of unpeeled edible tuber, Sofasosexy is a tease and a turn-on, and something enticing to place on your coffee table, before Rankin turns it semi-pornographic.
