Bodies in the Sun is a collection of photographs created during the summer of 2025 in Ottawa and across travels through Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal. The series emerged from those journeys not simply as a tribute to Pride celebrations, but as an ongoing study of how queer bodies encounter light, warmth, and collective joy.
At its core, Bodies in the Sun explores temporality as much as presence. Sunlight becomes a metaphor for the fleetingness of the season, of youth, and of queer freedom in spaces carved out from heteronormative life. Rendered in black and white, the work resists the saturated palette often associated with queer joy or pride, offering instead a contemplative lens on softness, stillness, and the quiet radicalism of being seen.
