The photographs were published in several magazines and newspapers, and appeared in exhibitions. When the 10th anniversary came around in 2000, I decided to show the series with another 10th anniversary event I'd photographed- OKA.
I opted to show in a cafe as it was too late to apply to a proper gallery in time for the anniversary, and I thought that in the past it had served me well to exhibit in places more accessible to the average person.
I never expected that 10 years after the turmoil of Sexgarage, the photos themselves would be subject to an attack in a Montreal vegan cafe of all places.
