Lust is a pretty powerful sentiment. Physical representations of it are so often contrived, unrealistic and photoshopped to death. Berlin-based filmmaker, Matt Lambert, is the antidote to that. His book, KEIM, has just been released as a second edition following it’s overwhelming success earlier this year.

Subjects are depicted candidly, which is enthrallingly refreshing, during personable moments – those trysts, in-the-moment interactions, and dream-like flashes – that reject modern society’s warped form of masculinity. (We’re talking about the pecs, abs and perfect skin seen ubiquitously across billboards – those mostly unattainable projections that are unrepresentative of real men.)

Adolescent behaviour and its intricacies are printed without contrition. From a playful kiss, to cuddle, from cum to cock – it’s all there, and done beautifully. The latter being key.

KEIM‘s cover is a double exposure of a mid-ejaculation, which is telling of Lambert’s overt pride for the instinctive, natural and untainted. And it’s anonymous. The subject isn’t pertinent but sex, intimacy and sexuality are.

Energies and romantic, bed-time compositions are unabated and produce a clear viewpoint of his participants’ fervour for closeness and sexual vitality. Getting lost within KEIM‘s sheets is par for the course.

KEIM’s second edition can be purchased via Pogo Books, here.
