The
man named Dirk is married to a sex doll..the aren’t like normal
couples. Their sentiments are: to love one another, to support one
another and to share a lot of their private time together.
The
only thing that sets them apart is Jenny is a ‘real doll’ that Dirk
bought for 6,000 euros (that’s $6,750). They have been living together
in Dirk’s flat for 4 years now, after Dirk suffered a breakdown from
feeling lonely. With Neil Young’s Such a Woman playing, they tied the
knot in Dirk’s flat, and instead of a wedding ring, he gifted her a
heart shaped pendant on a chain.
What
sets their relationship apart from that of simply a sex doll is that
Dirk has forged a true genuine relationship with Jenny. He can hear her,
talk to her and “perceive her soul”, believing she speaks
back.Documenting the couple’s day to day lives,the photographer, Sandra
Hoyn, discovered the 40-year-old man bathed Jenny on Sundays, they wrote
a blog together and watched football in front of the TV side by side.
Dirk, however, hasn’t told any of his family or friends, including his
child from a previous marriage. When he has guests he conceals her in
his bedroom and dims the lights.
The
photographer’s biggest challenge, was coming to terms with treating
Jenny as the person Dirk sees her to be; to not to just see the doll
just as a doll, but to “recognize what the man sees and loves in her”.
She actually started to feel her presence, and when Jenny was put in bed
for a ‘sleep’, actually felt her voice volume lowering, afraid of
waking her.
