This is so cool! Suzanne Forbes is an artist who has spent her career live-drawing queer/kinky and related people at parties. They drawings are super good, and drawn like, super sympathetically y’know. By someone who gets it. I love this so much. I missed/couldn’t support the crowdfunded book but the drawings are all visible on flickr. Makes me wanna go to some parties!!

She’s making the book so that the people in it/her work can be permanently memorialised/stored. I’m trying to think of the words which explain why I think it’s important. I guess it’s a growing sense that these spaces are ephemeral and under threat, and that they need to be… not preserved, because we preserve them by keeping the spaces and scene around ourselves, but remembered? Just in case. Just in case…
