Artistic photography – Queerantine
BA Visual Communication Project

Order? Eccentricity? At the end of the day, the definition of both concepts depends on the individual person analysing them, because the eccentricity seen by some people may actually be someone else’s peaceful order.
My idea is to represent this through a series of photographs taken in the most ordinary place: at home, simply portraying the quarantined life of people form Trentino and Südtirol who identify themselves (among a thousand other features) as part of the LGBT+ community. But since one’s sexual interests are not visible at first sight, I wanted to show that the beholders can’t tell the sexuality of the models in the photos.
The Covid-19 emergency prevented me from taking the photographs for this project in person, but not from completing it: in fact, all the photos for this project were taken by the same models that appear in the pictures.
