Brazil is the epitome of right-wing populism. Under Jair Bolsonaro, anti-queer attacks increased by 80 per cent, while 34,000 square kilometres of the Amazon region were burnt. Today, it is the deadliest country in the world for queer people, with half of all LGBTQIA* murders occurring there.

Tenha Orgulho is an archive of queer realities and endangered landscapes from Bolsonaro's reign. Through haunting portraits and mesmerising floral still lifes, the intertwining between the repression of homosexuality and the exploitation of the environment - both rooted in colonial and patriarchal violence - are revealed.

The photographer rejects the stereotypes of Latino queerness - oversexualised bodies, fetishised prostitution, sordid lifestyles - and asked each person how they would like to be portrayed, from the slums of Rio to the chicest neighbourhoods of São Paulo. Tenha Orgulho translates as ‘to be proud’.
