Untitled (Prince’s Room, 2019) This photo is from my most recent project, In The Life. I’ve been working on it for the past year as a part of my final thesis at Parsons School of Design. “In The Life” expands upon my exploration of my black queer identity and focuses on the exclusion of black queer life in photography. “In The Life” is queering black history by challenging the lack of visual representation accorded to queer identities. I am creating an archive of images that black queer people can look to for solace or inspiration. The photographs depict black queer people both in public and intimate settings performing everyday tasks. Extreme care is given to each photograph in order to elevate the mundanity and humanity of our collective lived experiences. -- source link
