“Proud Humans" is an intimate exploration and vibrant celebration of the Queer community from Latin America. As El Tigre, an artist at the crossroads of fashion and documentary photography, I strive to illuminate the hidden stories woven within their bold self-creation.

Going beyond the surface, the project provides an intimate gaze into worlds that are often perceived only from the exterior. Within their homes and their everyday environments, aspects of identities that often remain unseen are brought to light, crafting moments and images that echo the Queer community's liberating interaction with their spaces.
