NEW YORK – Jincey Lumpkin, founder and “chief sexy officer” of Juicy Pink Box, took on the role of both collaborator and subject matter in I Love Your Work, a just-released interactive documentary created by award-winning multimedia artist Jonathan Harris. The film explores the private lives of nine women who make lesbian porn.

“When you watch I Love Your Work, you realize it’s less a project about porn and more a project about women and how they live today,” Lumpkin said. “It’s an emotional exploration — an instant classic.”

In creating the documentary, Harris spent 10 consecutive days following each woman 24 hours a day. Along the way, he shot 10-second video clips approximately every five minutes, filming whatever was happening at that moment. The final project contains 2,202 of the 10-second clips, resulting in about six hours of footage.

“To be honest, being followed around for 24 hours a day was overwhelming,” Lumpkin said. “Jonathan was very respectful, but the camera catches everything.

“Watching myself onscreen was like being warped in a time machine,” she continued. “It’s a very intimate project, very raw. I’m not used to being so vulnerable.”

Harris said the documentary is “a bit racier than things I’ve made in the past, but it’s handled with a lot of intimacy.

“I think it’s a really intimate and revealing portrait of a community that’s usually pretty marginalized,” he noted. “Especially with all the recent talk about marriage equality, this feels like a timely and useful glimpse into the actual everyday lives of some real-world lesbian couples.”

Harris took an unusual approach in offering access to the I Love Your Work website: Only 10 viewers per day may enter, with tickets selling for $10 each. As the site is likely to sell out quickly and far in advance, the project will be difficult to see — a stark contrast to the instant-gratification model typical of internet porn. It’s an approach that could pioneer a new economic model for digital works: selling limited access to content that has been made scarce artificially. If it works, the model could provide a viable funding scheme for artists, whether they’re filmmakers, musicians, photographers, writers or multimedia visual artists like Harris.

Tickets to view I Love Your Work are available at ILoveYourWork.net.

Harris will donate 10 percent of ticket sales to the Sex Workers Project (part of New York City’s Urban Justice Center). The center provides social and legal services to people who engage in sex work, whether they do so by choice, circumstance or coercion.
