A staged yet eerily documentary photograph depicting a young man named Eric Hutsell, a hustler from Southern California who was paid twenty dollars to be photographed. DiCorcia's signature use of cinematic lighting transforms an intimate and transactional encounter into a visually dramatic tableau, blurring the line between reality and fiction. The work is part of diCorcia's acclaimed *Hustlers* series, in which he hired male sex workers and recorded their fee in the title, raising questions about commerce, identity, and the nature of photography itself.
