During twenty years, Jesper Haynes had a very open home on 90 St Marks place in New York’s East Village.
His friends, their friends, roommates, lovers, people left over from parties and others that nobody knows how they got there, formed the basis for Jesper’s photographs.
Zonked out, sometimes spaced out, living life on the edge the cast of characters that populated Jesper's life stare out from his images laughing, leaping and posing - testimony to deep friendships and a desire to refuse the mundane.
Jesper's images, all of which were shot in his apartment, are infused with a rare creative energy: at once raw, sexy, joyful, zany and highly personal.
