“Get Used To Us” echoes a historic LGBTQ rights slogan "We're here! We're queer! Get used to us!” Nadine Faraj’s fluid wet-on-wet technique abstracts erotic scenes to reflect an essence of sexual freedom that celebrates the mutability of gender and identity. The artist’s expressive application of pigment creates a blurring of boundaries between her subjects in a way that mirrors the suspension of self when provoked by passion. Get Used To Us will be on view through April 6 at Anna Zorina Gallery 532 West 24 Street, New York. photographs courtesy of Anna Zorina Gallery, New York City.
Luna Tristá's "She's My Man" Explores Social Themes, Gender Identity and Queer Culture
She's My Man is a new project by one of our favorite photographers, the Cuban-born, Barcelona-based Luna Tristá. It´s a series of portraits she took of her partner, once a month, during their encounters in Barcelona and Paris. She's My Man is about social themes, gender identity and queer culture. It´s a project that develops ironic and romantic undertones and examines these themes from a personal point of view. photographs by Luna Tristá
