I always have a tonne of inner conflict. It’s why I’ve never committed to getting a tattoo or a dog. I change my mind so often and spend a lot of my time alone overthinking all my life decisions and send myself into a state of mania. When I started this site I had a lot of reservations. The stigmas attached to sex and nudity are so strong, I was concerned about the detrimental effect it may have on my future. But more than anything I’m an artist, and I’ve really explored so many avenues in my life, I felt like I should stop caring what people think and just keep pushing boundaries. I’ve been a dancer, an actor, a music artist, a photographer, an editor, a casting director, an agent, a choreographer, a painter… I’ve done everything. I’ve experienced so much, and it’s led me to where I am today. My visibility as an LGBT person is key. Exposing myself like I do online, in a very flauntingly ‘gay’ way, is important. I’ve been represented by agencies who have told me I’m too nude etc, and my argument is always, I will not stop being visible. Straight men and women are nude all over Instagram, but are somehow looked at in a more respectable way than their gay counterparts. I want to continue to break boundaries, and through my films on my website I will do that. Before I post a video I panic, I think, will this get leaked, what will I do if this is all over Tumblr in the morning, but I need to stop living in fear of what people will do with what I produce, I just need to produce. I use my art as a way to get things off my chest. I am political and I am opinionated. I stand up for those who need to be stood up for. I am self aware and have learnt a lot about myself in the past decade. I’ve recognized my flaws and my strengths. I know what I need to work on, and what I need to improve. But right now I am so grateful that I’ve managed to build up a following that respects me and enjoys what I create, to the point where I can host a website like this successfully. It really is amazing. I also appreciate that some will just come for the nudity, but some will also come for the message, and both are as beautiful as each other. Our sexuality as gay people should be celebrated and embraced. Anyway, please let me know what you think of my work. You can get in touch on the contact form and let me know. I’ll always do my best to reply. Sam xxx
