featured by Giant Artists : ‘All In This Together’ – a ‘Black Queer’ work by photographer Myles LOFTIN c/o GIANT ARTISTS was presented and celebrated at VOGUE Italia PHOTO FESTIVAL 2020

Myles LOFTIN c/o GIANT ARTISTS was one of only 30 photographers worldwide selected for “All In This Together”, an exhibition organized by VOGUE Italy aimed at showcasing emerging international talent. Beyond surfacing fresh new artists, the show also has a humanistic mission.

“All In This Together” displays works by 30 photographers that are a hymn to love and hope, an encouragement to nurture and keep alive the sense of community, of solidarity and empathy that we all witnessed at the offset of a very dramatic moment in time, with Covid-19 spreading beyond borders and barriers,” we read in Vogue Italia.

The artists were selected by an international jury, and though the show was primarily digital, photos from “All In This Together” were on display outside at Giardini di Porta Venezia in Milan last November. The photo Myles contributed, shown below, is from his personal series “In the Life”, which focuses on what Myles describes as “the exclusion of Black queer life in photography”.

“It’s really been an honor to be selected for this festival,” he says. “Being able to share work like this on a global stage means a lot to me. I hope that it encourages other people to expand their ways of thinking.” Discover the 30 photographers selected through the scouting initiative launched on PhotoVogue.
