Print on aluminium, size varies. Featured in&nbsp;2020*MAGAZINE (Spain) and Zurichmoves! (Switzerland) Home Sweet Home is a small visual investigation of the interior settings of family-themed homoerotic pornographies. Making breakfast for step-sons in the kitchen; home tutoring from a step-bro after school; watching TV under the same blanket with the girlfriend’s dad… these hour-long temporary families perform love, care, affection (and more) in constructed domestic spheres that are often overlooked. What are the politics behind these astonishingly successful attempts to capitalise on family romance? How do sexual desire and material desire interact and flirt with each other? &nbsp;What makes a “home” a home, where stability, immovability, and warmth are deemed to be the primary credentials, sitting alongside vases, books, yoga mats and fake flowers? <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bab41e8fc6014e29ed7fc95b07dae36ee4eb5b11e8dca470b972f2df437eb63c/hsh1.jpg" data-mid="75911010" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bab41e8fc6014e29ed7fc95b07dae36ee4eb5b11e8dca470b972f2df437eb63c/hsh1.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/eca7c83b9eb365c549f74d76e2d75ef9d7d91a7cd8bd08c349d34507da0ac617/hsh2.jpg" data-mid="75911030" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/eca7c83b9eb365c549f74d76e2d75ef9d7d91a7cd8bd08c349d34507da0ac617/hsh2.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b9feda031fd89aa7208f63b925cc138cb2ad640706fc846e68814a2298d5980/hsh3.jpg" data-mid="75911034" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0b9feda031fd89aa7208f63b925cc138cb2ad640706fc846e68814a2298d5980/hsh3.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d597037208f910dd51df5e7ca861791850909b22563f928a253431fecce7b9c2/hsh4.jpg" data-mid="75911038" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d597037208f910dd51df5e7ca861791850909b22563f928a253431fecce7b9c2/hsh4.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f4097653a89dc4e3cd967981c4210b8e9b891b2f7d8c487cd6183b0d3b2dac32/hsh5.jpg" data-mid="75911041" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f4097653a89dc4e3cd967981c4210b8e9b891b2f7d8c487cd6183b0d3b2dac32/hsh5.jpg" /> <img width="1500" height="2084" width_o="1500" height_o="2084" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/39d910fc10b0072c0c65b95beb4ae6ac9f8987fdf989a461aa32adb9a2520dd0/hsh6.jpg" data-mid="75911077" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/39d910fc10b0072c0c65b95beb4ae6ac9f8987fdf989a461aa32adb9a2520dd0/hsh6.jpg" /> <img width="1920" height="1920" width_o="1920" height_o="1920" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dfe1b7df55721e25aa664699fd1eee5689e06e15f6f25de6e865c25cc3ab9a0c/3D-magazine2.jpeg" data-mid="112481253" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dfe1b7df55721e25aa664699fd1eee5689e06e15f6f25de6e865c25cc3ab9a0c/3D-magazine2.jpeg" /> <img width="1920" height="1920" width_o="1920" height_o="1920" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/53ab4d1318c121bf923b0c7315fd75d1b86563df28dd859a8c5c2aadc8d8a6d3/3D-magazine4.jpeg" data-mid="112481254" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/53ab4d1318c121bf923b0c7315fd75d1b86563df28dd859a8c5c2aadc8d8a6d3/3D-magazine4.jpeg" /> <img width="1600" height="1600" width_o="1600" height_o="1600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bc202879cc2469e968e6b40e701a9094bb897bb006039503de5229d9cadf9b6c/FOTOS-2020-MAGAZINE0046.jpg" data-mid="112481255" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bc202879cc2469e968e6b40e701a9094bb897bb006039503de5229d9cadf9b6c/FOTOS-2020-MAGAZINE0046.jpg" /> <img width="1600" height="1600" width_o="1600" height_o="1600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/30883b8b138397ff1ecc2aaa01737b7f5728623cda7f250059f9c5050dbe4aaa/FOTOS-2020-MAGAZINE0049.jpg" data-mid="112481256" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/30883b8b138397ff1ecc2aaa01737b7f5728623cda7f250059f9c5050dbe4aaa/FOTOS-2020-MAGAZINE0049.jpg" /> <img width="1125" height="1388" width_o="1125" height_o="1388" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e758c8975b9c0290a504c2aa73c0ab1cf6e1c08fd5c39ba11de2b87d23c16602/WechatIMG291.jpeg" data-mid="112481257" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e758c8975b9c0290a504c2aa73c0ab1cf6e1c08fd5c39ba11de2b87d23c16602/WechatIMG291.jpeg" /> <img width="1125" height="1389" width_o="1125" height_o="1389" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/417319f4e8f7bbbff94b6c1858fc4aedc8446c818a6ce772088f1e2794cbca01/WechatIMG292.jpeg" data-mid="112481258" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/417319f4e8f7bbbff94b6c1858fc4aedc8446c818a6ce772088f1e2794cbca01/WechatIMG292.jpeg" /> https://boihugo.com/manicure Mon, 28 Jun 2021 08:02:56 +0000 boihugo https://boihugo.com/manicure Cultural Organizing: China Queer Manicure Club (2019-), Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, China, Co-established by artist boihugo and fashion stylist Edge Yang, inspired by scholar Vivienne Sonja, China Queer Manicure Club(中国酷儿美甲俱乐部) is a workshop that introduces the concept of ‘everyday activism’ with the act of ‘painting nails’. Whether you are a queer folk, a cister, or even a straight man, you are welcome to join in this workshop to help destabilize the gender norms and make some contribution to gender equality, with as little effort as lending 10 of 1x1 cm square spaces of your own body.

We explore the boundaries of our identifications, in order to seek a friendlier context for dialogue. <img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/59b3b63a7c93bce4d49e227369d286b1f822933813ab2bf65039c232b9ca5dcd/DSC_0023-.jpg" data-mid="50682400" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/59b3b63a7c93bce4d49e227369d286b1f822933813ab2bf65039c232b9ca5dcd/DSC_0023-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b182e47870bcafba6659aa5c28907b7ef87fb7d3fcb0421619a4f15b5416a806/DSC_0107-.jpg" data-mid="50682410" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b182e47870bcafba6659aa5c28907b7ef87fb7d3fcb0421619a4f15b5416a806/DSC_0107-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/34be4775651e9666cdee8b076e591c22438df333d9d53c827fba27306bdf9169/DSC_0035-.jpg" data-mid="50682401" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/34be4775651e9666cdee8b076e591c22438df333d9d53c827fba27306bdf9169/DSC_0035-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="750" width_o="1000" height_o="750" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d601b751074860b993b4f6c1bb992f45f943f08d029147068fe93938a2f76685/DSC_0045-.jpg" data-mid="50682402" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d601b751074860b993b4f6c1bb992f45f943f08d029147068fe93938a2f76685/DSC_0045-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3a406afd56e4615d291b01de752d558b0ed3de5b5a694006114cf7a9b8068bc2/DSC_0053-.jpg" data-mid="50682403" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3a406afd56e4615d291b01de752d558b0ed3de5b5a694006114cf7a9b8068bc2/DSC_0053-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e26b507d01bdd15d61006b257aefe684e37a2ccdd9297eaa8d5f82b1afcd7c1f/DSC_0057-.jpg" data-mid="50682404" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e26b507d01bdd15d61006b257aefe684e37a2ccdd9297eaa8d5f82b1afcd7c1f/DSC_0057-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e4959f0fdf5a050a9b9655f836f964db0005335cd0d482dfdc9341bb75c44646/DSC_0058-.jpg" data-mid="50682405" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e4959f0fdf5a050a9b9655f836f964db0005335cd0d482dfdc9341bb75c44646/DSC_0058-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a5d6af954d4ba5bc2463b9d46e2de73b0bbce354a21451304d2c02b1be0d261d/DSC_0061-.jpg" data-mid="50682406" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a5d6af954d4ba5bc2463b9d46e2de73b0bbce354a21451304d2c02b1be0d261d/DSC_0061-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/202beab9aed7e681e818e150b4c981385a43076a76c0f2fc58ee935596205386/DSC_0066-.jpg" data-mid="50682407" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/202beab9aed7e681e818e150b4c981385a43076a76c0f2fc58ee935596205386/DSC_0066-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b1dc13181e320b6eff5442d364052ed05bd25a68311e0fbb7dddf1a8917da754/DSC_0068-.jpg" data-mid="50682408" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b1dc13181e320b6eff5442d364052ed05bd25a68311e0fbb7dddf1a8917da754/DSC_0068-.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="668" width_o="1000" height_o="668" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/22bb960adc0a239256f6c5d4ffaba0b0229130d53965c7c52d38485b16858023/DSC_0078-.jpg" data-mid="50682409" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/22bb960adc0a239256f6c5d4ffaba0b0229130d53965c7c52d38485b16858023/DSC_0078-.jpg" /> https://boihugo.com/untitled-folder Sun, 16 Dec 2018 13:45:41 +0000 boihugo https://boihugo.com/untitled-folder Open Call: Cum For Me One Last Time In collabration with Callum Abbott. &nbsp;December 2018, London, U.K. Accompanied by a conversation between Kitty Drake and Ben Freeman: Why the Tumblr Ban Leaves Us Sleepwalking Into A Totalitarian Information Landscape appeared in untitled folder 4 I started browsing gay porno on Tumblr in my senior year of high school, dating back to 2013. It played an irreplaceable role in shaping my sexuality and exploring my identity from my late adolescence to early adulthood. After hearing the devastating news that all of the explicit content was going to be removed in mid December 2018, I wanked to my Tumblr “likes” as if it was the last time ever. It was romantic, yet perhaps more of a ritual.&nbsp;In the final days of the Tumblr porno era, we posted an open call to invite people to masturbate to their Tumblr, cum, take a photo of the cum and send it to us as a documentation of the collective online orgasm carnival, to in memory of this generational and cultural phenomenon. <img width="1500" height="1060" width_o="1500" height_o="1060" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/44d8b3dd04082111b29b0c5a70ab1118a2d4de1ea3fed58eabddbe9c26af54d2/spread-1-.jpg" data-mid="50682126" border="0" data-scale="23" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/44d8b3dd04082111b29b0c5a70ab1118a2d4de1ea3fed58eabddbe9c26af54d2/spread-1-.jpg" />&nbsp; &nbsp;<img width="1500" height="1060" width_o="1500" height_o="1060" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6f1ea64baf075f84a6dafc587a58442f15705260aed064b88aebc33783f3ac23/spread-3-.jpg" data-mid="50682130" border="0" data-scale="23" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6f1ea64baf075f84a6dafc587a58442f15705260aed064b88aebc33783f3ac23/spread-3-.jpg" />&nbsp; &nbsp;<img width="1500" height="1060" width_o="1500" height_o="1060" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bbc6fd99f8c98293afb24abb5a421a53934c32219bab1eb8e46aaa9491cd124a/spread-2-.jpg" data-mid="50682128" border="0" data-scale="23" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bbc6fd99f8c98293afb24abb5a421a53934c32219bab1eb8e46aaa9491cd124a/spread-2-.jpg" />
