Description

I have spent a decade registering queer folk and artists in their often life-taking quests for overcoming objectification and struggle and becoming the subjects of their empowered selves. "… he lived in a state of Grace. Like being a saint in Paradise. And Paradise was to love and be loved by Abel. Oblivious to the end of things, he closed his eyes and sipped in the delights of the most concrete Heaven he ever knew. He had no guilt, and levitated, one foot and a half above ground, for his love of Abel. But his moments of ecstasy in the chapel were very true, if brief. Lost in contemplating his very palpable love, he surrendered to the whispers of the imposing wings of the angels that surrounded him…" — from João Silvério Trevisan, "Wantons in Paradise", 2000. 3200x4000 jpeg. Photograph by Hugo Faz and Rony Hernandes (pictured), 2020. Our rendition of the ever present queer struggle for love, further impacted by the isolation imposed by the pandemic and our ever increasingly digital new lives.
