Sagittae Sebastiani Tally Beck Contemporary (New York) showed work by Filipino artist, Niccolo Cosme at Miami Project 2014.
Cosme's photos are reimaginings of religious iconography. Chatting with the gentleman manning the booth we found out that the artist was trying to come to terms with how his religion came together with his real life--especially his sexual identity.
How does a gay man relate to a religion that often exclude and even castigates him? The photographs are powerful and beautiful but they are more than just aesthetically pleasing; they are thought provoking.
