Patrick Lupinski: Capturing Man's Softer Side In 14 Homoerotic Images
Challenging societal expectations of masculinity through a queer lens in an arousing collection of intimate portraits.
Patrick Lupinski is a Brooklyn-based photographer and creative director whose work challenges our ever-evolving idea of how 'masculinity' can be represented.
A first-generation Polish-American, Patrick grew up surrounded by cameras, either as a subject for his father or as acting as an amateur photographer himself. As his passion for photography developed, Patrick began a deeper exploration into portraiture, where he cultivated a signature style and impressive portfolio of 'soft homoeroticism.' A term that perfectly captures the sensuality and vulnerability of his subjects in his images.
Through his work, Patrick examines masculinity and presents an alternative perspective on stereotypical attributes often placed on the male form. Influenced by legendary photographers like Peter Hujar and George Platt Lynes, Patrick's art embodies the complexities of man's beauty and fragility.
