Australian painter Ross Watson has recruited gay porn star and HIV-prevention activist Francois Sagat for his latest piece -- a painting of Sagat being crucified.
"I was motivated by the Vatican's position on homosexuality, and its ban on condom use, to create a painting which references Caravaggio's 'Crucifiction of St Peter,'" Watson said of his painting. "Francois Sagat continues to play a valuable role in the area of HIV/AIDS prevention and education. I wanted to acknowledge that in the painting, whilst tying it to the Vatican."
