The resulting series contains over one hundred portraits of LGBTQIA+ individuals presented in straightforward yet intentional compositions that embody visibility, defiance, and authenticity. Together, these images form a living archive-a record of a community at the threshold of profound political and cultural shifts."

Brooklyn-based photographer Stas Ginzburg, a queer refugee from Russia, documents people at marches, rallies, and Pride gatherings across the United States. Over five years he photographed queer, trans, and gender-nonconforming individuals, producing more than one hundred portraits. The images feature straightforward yet intentional compositions that emphasize visibility, defiance, and authenticity. Together they form a living archive and a record of a community facing profound political and cultural shifts. As queer and trans lives confront renewed threats of legislative erasure and structural violence, the series functions as witness and counter-narrative, preserving a lineage of activism and radical public presence.
