Sage Sohier chronicled the love of gay couples in the 1980s in her collection At Home With Themselves. Spurred by the AIDS crisis and the media representations of promiscuity and disease in the community, the project aimed to dispel stereotypes about gay love and showcase lesbian and gay couples of all ages, backgrounds and proclivities, capturing a visual that often went unseen.

“I was interested in how, as a culture, we weren’t used to looking at two men touching, and was struck by the visual novelty yet total ordinariness of these same-sex relationships. The visual ambiguity of same-sex relationships also intrigued me: were these sisters or friends or lovers or a mother and daughter?“

The photographic endeavor was also prompted by Sohier’s father. The book is dedicated to him and his partner Lee.

ESTEFANIA LORET DE MOLA : our lives are inherently in a state of constant transition.

L'Origine du monde, 1866, by Gustave Courbet. Musée d'Orsay, Paris. Personal photo. It’s really impressive to see it in the museum : all people who look at it seem utterly intimidated, in a hurry, meanwhile they look with a satisfied curiosity to the 34'567 penises dangling from whatever statue.

“It’s a book that’s been making a lot of noise lately : that of Alice Coffin, entitled Lesbian genius. The feminist activist, elected ecologist at the Council of Paris, proposes to “eliminate men from our minds, our images and our representations”. She explains no longer reading their books, no longer listening to their music, no longer watching their films. In short, it’s radical. “

Ladies can you suggest your favorite books, movies or music by women? Right now I’m listening to Loreena McKennitt.
