About the book
Photographed in the red light districts of Paris, Vicky Wetherhill's first book captures the very essence of the peep show - its titillation, its voyeurism, its seedy and secretive nature. This is a world of shadows - of life on the margins - revealed through voluptuously curtained neon-lit doorways, with their strategic gaps and seductive folds. Footprints, shadows and patches of light provide further visual clues of the provocative symbolism at work in these images as even the clientele become anonymous markers of this voyeuristic process. With 58 full-colour photos.
