LISBON VERNACULAR

The images published by msdm publications in its Orphan series are from The Found Photo Foundation; each publication uses its own format so as to reflect the editor’s original approach to the material.
Orphan #2 is a selection from three photo albums  of domestic porn, found in the offices of Lisbon’s leading telecommunications company. A common practice in mid 20th century city life, office workers used their lunch break to visit one another’s homes and enact their fantasies for the camera.
