‘Queer Fighters’ is a photographic body of work that features six different LGBTQ+ individuals based in Dublin who are actively involved in combat sports and Martial Arts, including Muay Thai and Boxing. 
​
This project, which consists of intimate one on one portraits of each athlete placed within different queer friendly clubs around the city hopes to showcase a new era of acceptance in Irish Martial Arts, an era which values diversity and inclusion for all types of athletes. 

In developing this body of work amid a rise of homophobic assaults in the city, i wanted to pose a question: is the increased engagement with martial arts by queer people born out of a pragmatic need for self-defense or does a shift in the traditionally heteronormative attitudes associated with martial arts account for the increased interest in the sport within our community? ‘Queer Fighters’, which is accompanied by a selection of interviews made with each athlete and edited by Soria Reilly, is supported by the Arts Council Ireland.

This is a song I made to soundtrack an art film that is part of a multimedia art project titled Camisa de once varas, which was awarded the grand prize at the 2025 Premio Joven de la Imagen de Fotografía y Video in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. My idea was to create an atmospheric, disperse soundscape combining an acoustic guitar sample with modern sounds like message notifications, off-hook phones and printing sounds that fit the narrative. Some of my references and inspirations for this song were Poe's album Haunted, Ethel Cain's Perverts, and Sigur Rós's Valtari.
