Sex for Breakfast

A Salty Start to the Day

Whoever said that you shouldn’t play with your food never met photographer Paloma Rincón and designer Pablo Alfieri. For their salty series Sex for Breakfast, the pair posed bodies in the buff alongside a buffet of brunchtime snacks from raw bacon to buttery pancakes. With bright colors, sensual textures, and a straight-forward sense of humor, the series steps outside of the traditional tropes of erotica or other forms of sexual imagery. Instead, the nude body exists as a conversation piece—another appetizer alongside the fresh fruit.
