Inspired by the fetish classic novel by Octave Mirbeau

 in 1899, 

 Torture Garden by Rick Castro 

features selected fetishized & homoerotic photographs from Rick’s extensive archives 

~1986 thru 2021~   


   "~Ah, yes! the Torture Garden! 

  Passions, appetites,  love, glory, heroism, hedonism & ritual: these are its exotic flowers and its instruments of eternal human lust.  

What I present is no more than a symbol to me of the entire earth. I have vainly sought a respite in quietude and repose in my urban garden, 

and I can find them nowhere. ~"
