*Scorpionkiss is the portfolio of Roy M. Gunnels, from Fort Worth, Texas, a fine-art and documentary photographer. Roy attended Texas Christian University and has lived and worked the past two years in Cairo, Egypt.
The selections on this website are fine-art, documentary, and conflict work from the Middle-East and the continent of Africa, including the Egyptian Revolution of 2011, as well as conceptual work and portraits.
We hope you enjoy the work here at Scorpionkiss, and will take time to view the photo-essays from Egypt, “A Pastiche Of The Street” and “Cairo In Revolution”, and from Gondor, Ethiopia, “Hearts Of Gondor”.
“Les Fleurs du Mal Et La Vie Secrète de Coquelicots”, Flowers of Evil And The Secret Life of Poppies, is based on the poetry of Charles Baudelaire.
“Scorpionkiss en Noir” is an assorted collection of images and candid portraits in black and white and sepia, including three images from “Asleep At Saqqara”, a photo-essay about Egyptian day-workers at the famous pyramids and necropolis of Saqqara.
You may also see the photo-essay currently in production, “Outlaw In Texas”, a dynamic visual story about a Harley-Davidson motorcycle shop in a small town in Texas.
