Chris Jepson is a Brighton-based photographer whose work centres on
LGBTQIA+ lives, identity, and community. Through Proud Studios CIC,
he creates documentary portrait projects that sit at the intersection of
fine art and social practice – among them The Identity Project, Beyond
the Binary and Queer Elders, an ongoing exploration of memory and
intergenerational queer experience.
These cyanotypes mark a departure into process-led, handmade work
– bringing together historical photographic technique and
queer visual culture in a form that is as much object as image
