Photo Journal Monday: Stephanie Meiling
Pride, NYC 2011
Stephanie Mei-Ling is a Taiwanese/Black-American documentary photographer based between Brooklyn and Los Angeles. Through her work she explores such layered issues as the complexity of intersectional identity; elevating the narrative of invisible communities; society's fetishization of marginalized subcultures; the universality of otherness through a global lens; and the appropriation, re- appropriation and reclaiming of cultural narratives.
Pride, NYC 2012
The last Sunday in June is one of my favorite days of the year. The Pride parade in New York is a celebration of individuality, of expression, of coming out, of being authentically you. Over the past 10 years, my focus with this series has been to document the Black and Brown LGBT community at the parade. I am always interested in how we as people of color exist and show up within social frameworks.
