Photography

Scott Andrew’s work in photography and self-portraiture functions as an extension of his performance and video practice, serving as a metaphysical archive of constructed queer identities and speculative fantasies.

These images document or embody moments of intense theatricality, often capturing the artist and collaborators inhabiting characters across the gender spectrum, rooted in themes of maximalism, fantasy, and pop culture iconography.

Key projects in this section include:

• Self Portraits: An ongoing collection of performance-based and mediated self-portraits spanning over a decade, focusing explicitly on constructed personas and digital representation. These works visualize the artist’s interests in fluidity and the permeability of identity.
• Organza Orgazmica: A collaboration creating cinematic narratives featuring daring drag queens and “beautiful boys,” embracing chintzy splendor and pop divas to explore blurred boundaries of glamour, classical femininity, and post-humanist expression in fantastical, imagined environments.

This body of work captures performance in a fixed state, preserving the excess and absurdity found in the live moment while pushing the visual limits of queer aesthetics.
