'TAKE CARE OF YOUR BROTHER'

‘Take Care Of Your Brother’ is a series of portraits of brothers in an outside space in London that means something to them. It aims to question what care and closeness looks like between two brothers. Societally, the word care and sisterhood go together without question because it’s enveloped by femininity, but care and brotherhood are rarely heard together. Words and images shape our society and I do believe that in a time where women and LGBTQIA+ rights are under threat across the world because of a patriarchal system, we could use a shift in narrative about masculinity. I want young boys to see images of two men showing closeness and softness towards each other without it being related to their sexuality, just comfort. I want these photoshoots to hold a space for them, the next hour is about them and their brotherhood, what do they think this relationship looks like? How do they want to show it?
