HOLY EROTICA

THE GALLERY
Welcome to “The Gallery”, a curated space for authentic, unfiltered expression that invites reflection, embodiment, and connection. Here, you’ll find two unique offerings:
The Gallery is primarily a showcase for my other HOLY EROTICA Film Studies — a personal collection of video/audio content curated as artifacts for exploration and analysis. This is also the multi-media content for The Erostocrat online magazine.
The Gallery is also an OPEN INVITATION to contribute your own content, but framed as artifacts for further exploration and analysis.
Together, The Gallery reframes erotic content as a medium for education, self-discovery, and artistic expression rather than exploitation or exhibitionism.

SUMMARY |
The Holy Erotica Film Studies is the rest of my content outside of The Lilith Trilogy. It is a deeply personal collection of visual and audio artifacts exploring the intersection of spirituality and sexuality, a winding path crossing mentors and colleagues, healers and charlatans, friends and family, and the loves of my life.
This curation is my ETHNOGRAPHIC VIDEO JOURNAL OF EROTICISM examined through the lenses of sexuality, spirituality, science, and story.
The curated collection features a diverse array of content—including short films, interviews, raw footage, video art, audio recordings, and intimate conversations. These pieces are the multimedia foundation of The Erostocrat online magazine and are shared exclusively with the COHE community.

ALL ABOUT SEX, NOT ABOUT SEX |
The Holy Erotica Film Studies are not all blatantly erotic. Most deal with the subject of spiritual-sexuality conversationally or peripherally to illustrate how eroticism interweaves into all parts of life such as family dynamics, religious upbringing, ancestry, biology, spirituality, and MORE. Featured contributors include anthropologists, published therapists, sexologists, trauma therapists, and ministers.

THE FRAME |
Each artifact is paired with thought-provoking questions designed to deepen connection — with both the content and oneself. Responses can be featured alongside the content or shared in curated discussion boards, fostering open dialogue.
These questions and answers form the ‘frame’ of each artifact, intentionally slowing the content consumption process for both viewers and creators, creating space for reflection, emotion, and sensation.
ARTIFACT QUESTIONS
-
WHAT WERE YOU FEELING IN YOUR BODY as you created this? How did that inform your expression?
WHAT WERE YOU FEELING IN YOUR BODY as you created this? How did that inform your expression?How did your physical environment influence your creative process?
WERE THERE MOMENTS DURING THE CREATION when you felt disconnected? What brought you back?
WHAT PART OF YOUR BODY LED YOUR MOVEMENT, the gesture, or choice of framing?
HOW DOES THIS CONTENT REFLECT your relationship with your body and it’s sensations?
-
HOW DOES THIS CONTENT MAKE YOU FEEL in your body? Can you notice any tension, relaxation, or warmth?
WHAT EMOTIONS ARISE as you watch this? Are they tied to past experiences or present sensations?
WHERE IN YOUR BODY DO YOU FEEL THE STRONGEST CONNECTION to what you’re observing?
CAN YOU STAY PRESENT with the content without judgment? What does that feel like?
DOES THIS CONTENT INSPIRE movement, breath changes, or other physical responses?
EMOTIONS and SENSATIONS |
Allowing ourselves to feel emotions and sensations helps release what's trapped in our bodies. We might feel sadness when we expect pleasure or happiness when we expect shame. We can experience numbness when we anticipate excitement or feel excitement when we expect to be numb. Each feeling is a choice: to disconnect or to embrace and truly feel it. This cycle of feeling and letting go slowly removes barriers from past experiences, revealing our true selves. That’s how this works.

THE TRANSMISSION |
As an editor-producer of docu-series, my job was make viewers laugh, cry, or learn something every 15 seconds. I kept viewers glued to their screens, controlling their emotions so they felt only what I wanted them to feel. Here, I am doing the opposite.
I use filmmaking to transmit my presence practice from my nervous system to yours through the Holy Erotica Film Studies. By asking similar questions to yourself and cultivating presence, you can bring this practice into your own life, transforming how you connect with yourself and others. This creates space for your Authentic Self to emerge.

The HOLY EROTICA Film Studies ‘frame’ is a model for how erotic content can inspire AUTHENTICITY, PRESENCE, and PERSONAL GROWTH.
The OPEN INVITATION in The Gallery welcomes the artifacts of others to be presented within the same ‘frame’ — the thoughtful interplay of questions and answers that accompany each piece.
THE OPEN INVITATION |
THE OPEN INVITATION |
“The Gallery” is an offering that includes an OPEN INVITATION for others to contribute their own artifacts. To be clear, this is not an open call for content, but rather a CALLING.
There is no need for more content in the traditional sense; the gallery is already filled with my own artifacts. Instead, this is an invitation for those who feel compelled to engage with reverence and intention.
For those who respond, understand: this is not about profit or validation. If you are seeking connection or longing to be desired, those are treasures best discovered within yourself.
This is a quiet, sacred invitation to view your own life as an ethnographic video journal—an exploration of eroticism woven with a spiritual thread. It calls you to become a seeker of something deeper, something DIVINE.

THE CAMERA |
WITH THIS INVITATION, any camera or phone can be transformed from a tool of voyeurism into a vessel for ceremony. With prayer and intention, it becomes sacred. And so can you. You have the power to step into the role of priest or priestess, consecrating the act of creation and shifting the frequency of pornography into something holy — something of God.
This is a rare opportunity — perhaps the only opportunity — for your creations to be received as sacred artifacts. Here, they are studied with care, honored as expressions of worship, and offered as prayers.
This INVITATION is open to all who are called, not by curiosity but by devotion, to engage reverently and intentionally.
THE GALLERY | TEMPLE SPACE
The Gallery is designed to hold content with the same sanctity as a holy temple. It is a space of reverence — an INNER SANCTUARY, where the content is experienced as sacred, inviting embodiment and feeling in contrast to the disembodiment and numbness evoked by traditional content. Reference the COMMUNITY page for more context.
WORSHIP + RECIPROCITY + DIGNITYSACRED SELFIES |
A sexy selfie is more than an image — it can be a moment of embodied prayer, a celebration of divine creation. When approached with reverence, these photographs become OFFERINGS.
The first OPEN INVITATION for The Gallery is for “sacred selfies” as artifacts. This study aspires to transform a selfie into a sacred ritual, shifting it from a superficial act to a profound expression of love and prayer. It becomes a tool for reclaiming your body, honoring your story, and offering yourself to something greater.

SACRED SELFIES | A GUIDE
-
Here is a guide to make a prayer out of your body:
Reverence for the Body: Capturing the curves, textures, and expressions of your physical form as a sacred reflection of your divine artistry.
Intentional Presence: Treating the act of taking a selfie as a meditative practice, focusing on honoring your authentic self rather than seeking external validation.
Prayerful Expression: Each pose, gaze, or angle becomes a prayer — a way of expressing gratitude for the gift of your body and it’s ability to feel, love, and connect.
Authentic Vulnerability: Sharing yourself with honesty and courage, ofgfering your image as a vulnerable yet powerful act of worship.
-
Here is a guide to create a ritual around the selfie:
Set an Intention: Before you take the selfie, pause to connect with your heart. Why are you capturing this moment? Is it to honor your beauty, express love for yourself, or embrace your sexuality?
Create a Sacred Space: Light a candle play play soft music, or engage in a grounding practice to bring presence to the act.
Frame it as an Offering: When you take the photo, imagine it as a gift — not for others, but for the divine, or as a reflection of the sacred within yourself.
Release Judgment: Embrace your image without seeking perfection. The reverence lies in the act, not in the approval of others.
