Many Moons, along with Queer Topographies are projects that stem from a multi-year research and photographic project that documents various mundane, yet pivotal components of both ephemeral and architectural transformations implemented in queer nightlife spaces. Some of these theatric components documented, include fog/smoke, lights, lasers, soft borders, dance floors, and disco balls.
Many Moons, is part of a 10+ year archive of disco balls that have been photographed in queer nightlife spaces around the world. The disco balls are printed, hand cut, and individually collaged onto a wooden board that has been treated with deep black paint. Referencing both moons and celestial bodies, and originally inspired by the Hubble Telescope’s Deep Field Photos.
