Expanding this to his fields of interest, the (im)possible representation of LGBTQ+ people is one of his main subjects; with recurring themes like vulnerability and desire.

“Untitled 2018” is an installation with photographs; where bodies meet other bodies. In the space bodies are presented as photographic objects but also through depictions of flesh. On the wall large prints of photographic apparatuses hang next to intimate images of LGBTQ+ individuals. The artist combines his interest in the gay gaze with exploring notions of ‘seeing’ in itself. By focusing on the objecthood of photographs he attempts to emphasize materiality - and therewith vulnerability - in the photographic medium.
