signs of tenderness is an exploration into the formation of chosen family within the queer community, and the unique manifestation of relationships amongst those who identify as such.

this project, manifested in a mixed-media photobook consisting of short interviews and photographs of the subjects, documents eight individuals within their chosen families as they exist currently, and how these relationships have evolved over the course of these individuals’ lives.

shown here are the gals of turbo town -- abbey, beth, and eva -- captured during a trip to glasgow and balloch in february 2020.

coming june 1st, 2020
