CUBA: The Curious Case Of Used Condoms In The Streets.

ZORIAH/Black & White Photos of Cuba/A real taste of Cuba...And NOT What You Think!

Sex in the Streets, Homeless Sex, Lots of Sex???

"After my first day of shooting in Havana, Cuba, I remember thinking to myself "Geez, there sure are a lot of nasty condoms in the streets here." I thought the same thing after my second day of shooting, and third, fourth and so on. Toward the end of my trip I began thinking "If I took a shot of every condom I saw on the sidewalk, street, alley, etc., that would have made an interesting story...too bad." But instead of giving up on the idea, I decided I would just photograph every condom I saw for the rest of the day and make that into a story. After two hours, I decided I had made my point and gave up. Below are contact sheets of condoms I saw on the ground in Havana during a two hour walk and exploration."
