John Edmonds, a queer Black photographer, has made examining identities outside of constructed social bias the core of his ongoing practice.

Within this larger exploration, the 27-year-old image-maker focuses primarily on Black men in America, highlighting the vast spectrum of identities—not as a mere documenter, but as an empathetic artist, allowing each subject's own life experience to inform the direction. Across different photographic series, Edmonds' work has challenged the sexualization of Black men, tested widespread stereotypes about dress and softened mainstream depictions of masculinity.
