Polari Zine - Our Lives: Our Eyes

  • Nico Gratino
  • Kriti Saraswat

Polari (@polarizine) is an emerging visual community for queer people of all identities, expressions and generations. I have worked with fellow queer people to help authentically capture their personalities through my 35mm photography. The result is a photozine highlighting individual narratives through organic portraits and personal handwritten text. The first issue focuses on queer creatives and students in Nottingham. Nottingham, despite its burgeoning queer scene, receives minimal attention in discussions of LGBTQIA+ identities and culture. Having called the city home for the past 4 years, I decided to dedicate the first issue to this underrepresented demographic. Thank you Paula, Delaney, Kriti, Bailey, Rita & Maia for entrusting me to photograph you <3

* My dream for Polari is to expand feauturing the stories of any queer person here, there and everywhere!

* Currently lacking the financial funds to print multiple copies and develop subsequent issues.

* I am always looking for like-minded collaborators wether that be models, photographers or other creatives DM if you'd like to be involved!
