Ink and pencil stabilo woody on black paper, 48.3 x 63.5 cm each.
Two men.
Two faces melting into one another,
in tears that don’t ask for forgiveness—
but demand visibility.
Under @m.lepinepothon ‘s kind and watchful eye,
I painted what society hides:
masculine fragility,
queer tenderness,
sacred sorrow.
Let’s unlearn silence.
Let’s unmake shame.
Let men cry,
and let that cry be beautiful.
