An igloo, an enchanted forest… and Nazi Germany: these are the bizarre settings at a 180-room SEX HOTEL

A PHOTOGRAPHER has captured the secret sights of what goes on behind closed doors at a themed sex motel using local women as models.

When Mexico City-based photographer Kurt Hollander arrived in Cali, Colombia, he immediately headed for the 180-room elusive Motel Kiss Me.

He lived for two weeks in a suite, with free reign to wander the halls, where behind closed doors, couples engaged in sex acts against the backdrop of a theme of their choice.

Each room is unique, modelled according to a specific motif, explains the photographer.

Some are based on countries, including India, China, ancient Egypt, and Nazi Germany; while others follow a general concept, like an arctic igloo or aquatic underworld.

The motel is decorated by local painters and sculptors, with several pornographic television channels and a sex shop.

While prostitution is legal in the area, Kurt stresses that Motel Kiss Me is more for the everyday couple looking for a glamorous getaway.

The decor offers a chance to escape from the pressures of life, and for some, it satisfies the fantasy of entering to an otherwise inaccessible kingdom.

Some of the layouts are fairly disturbing, one chamber is modelled after New York City, complete with an explosion of the Twin Towers, but Kurt chooses not to judge.

Hotel Kiss Me encourages not only “safe sex,” but also, he suggests, “good sex,” available at an affordable price to people of all races, genders, and sexual orientations.

For The Architecture of Sex, Hollander asked several local women to sit for him in a room of their choosing.

They come from diverse backgrounds,one is an actress, one a cross dresser, another a rugby player, but all were instructed to act as though they were in the motel with a lover.

They dressed according to their own wishes, as the photographer’s primary intention was to lift the veil on the fantasies and desires of others.
