Superman's Pockets

This project was an allegory about masculinity. The title of the exhibition and book came from the idea that Superman didn't need pockets for loose because he was ...Superman. Yet these men that lived out their alter-ego did need pockets. I remember Angle-grinder man kept his gloves in his crotch.
