Peter Coulson's Hotel Room II Series is Strangely Refreshing

There is an eerie oddity to the Hotel Room II photo series, despite the fact that the photographer was clearly going for a more erotic theme. Of course, eroticism in the form of nudity can be overplayed in many cases, thus the use of strange settings and stranger poses can be quite refreshing. In this case, the Hotel Room II photo series is made much more captivating because of it.

Shot by Australian fashion, beauty and fetish photographer Peter Coulson, the Hotel Room II photo series stars Tara Hurster and Natascha Verkaik. The series itself seems to take many cues from famed photographers such as Helmut Newton and Guy Bourdin, who also relied on mysterious and surreal narratives to offset their use of nudity.
