Aguilar explained, ‘My work is a collaboration between the sitters and myself... Hopefully the universal elements in the work can be recognised by other individuals’ communities and can initiate the viewer to new experiences about gays, lesbians, and people of color.’ For the artist, the viewer ‘is as vulnerable as the nude person because as they view the images, they are hopefully seeing images of themselves.’
