"Homeland: Portraits of America's Queer Youth is an exhibition that explores how GLBTQ youth from rural or suburban areas find and/or create community. In many locations across the United States, young gay, lesbian, and trans people are geographically isolated from major centers of queer cluture.
The work of photographers Bret Bell and Molly Landreth exemplify this challenging experience. With roots in rural Missouri, Brett Bell created a body of work that calls upon friends and acquaintances to express personal childhood experiences with longing and sexuality. Photographer Molly Landreth, in contrast, journeyed through America in serch of queer people and documented their lives.
In their juxtaposition, these images depict subjects, both real and fictional, that help create a picture of what it means to be queer in America today." - Taken from the Leslie/Lohman Gallery Website
