Vogue Italiaさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Vogue ItaliaInstagram)「Photo Vogue Festival 2020: @MylesLoftin is one of the artists selected for the upcoming ALL IN THIS TOGETHER exhibition curated by @AlessiaGlaviano and @Maranif. The project on display is titled “In the Life”. “This past spring I spent a lot of time trying to make sense of the realities of my existence as a 22 year old black queer man.” says the artist. “I was thinking about the way that I, and people like me, navigate society. I was also thinking about the ways we have or have not been represented within the media. As a black queer person, conversations around representation and inclusion within visual culture become complicated. We are often ostracized in both the general queer populous as well as the black community. And our inclusion in the overall canon of photography and art is scarcely documented, despite significant contributions to history. My current project “In The Life” expands upon this exploration 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.” About the artist - “As a photographer, I’m particularly interested in exploring the narratives of queer, trans, and racial monitories - even more particularly, black and brown folks. Through honest and intimate portraiture, my work connects the individuals I photograph with a broad audience.” OUTDOOR EXHIBITIONS @ Giardini di Porta Venezia - From October 30th to November 22nd DIGITAL PLATFORM - Online from November 12th FESTIVAL LIVE - From November 19th to November 22nd Discover more about the fifth edition of #PhotoVogueFestival via link in bio.」10月27日 2時59分
