About the Photographer

Landreth, Molly

 
Molly Landreth uses photography to build an archive that highlights individuals of the queer community. Using a large-format camera and treating the images as a collaborative process, Landreth makes intimate portraits of her sitters with the intent to portray love, survival, persistence, and hope. The photographs give visibility to the myriad ways in which queerness undercuts the traditional and stereotypical views of gender identity and sexuality by displaying, in her words, “the lives of people who offer brave new visions of what it means to be queer today.”Â
