The concept for this AI generated photoshoot comes from the iconic and beloved video game franchise, Grand Theft Auto. More specifically, the earlier versions of the game such as Grand Theft Auto Vice City and San Andreas. The photoshoot tells a story of various characters in the fictional city in their daily lives as criminals, however something is a bit different.

The characters are dressed in a hyper masculine erotic way, very different from how the typical Grand Theft Auto characters are dressed. This reflects the innequality of representation of gay men in the video game space. 

Representation is very important in all aspects of the media, including video games. This shoot aims to highlight the inequalities that exist in the gaming industry.
