Since the 1970s, Nan Goldin has been documenting life underneath the New York subculture, with her work closely linked to issues of sex, drugs, violence, and the LGBT community. The Ballad of Sexual Dependency is a series of snapshots that captures the intimate relationships of the people around her: moments of ecstasy and friendship, intimacy and loss.
