Edward Gia is an Ecuadorian-Mexican American artist from New York, NY. His work delves into the complexities of their queer identity within the confines of heteronormative and religious frameworks. Utilizing the snapshot aesthetic, his photographs evoke nostalgia, particularly evident in his approach to portraiture and the documentation of his surrounding spaces. Beyond personal narratives, they engage with religious iconography, moving beyond mere reference to explore the intricate connections between gender, sexuality, and morality. This exploration extends beyond the individual, intertwining with broader themes such as immigration and the enduring bonds across generations.
