Anthropologist-turned-photographer Daniel Jack Lyons has spent years capturing the resilience of their queer friends around the world. In an exclusive photo series, they turn their lens to their chosen family in Los Angeles
Each queer person’s story treads a different, formative path of self-exploration. While an urgency to express one’s gender or sexuality can sometimes meet an impasse with one’s own social and familial circle’s less accepting beliefs, an abstract bond can be tethered with others who share the experience – a new, chosen family, fostered by harsh coming-of-age trauma. Such is the case withcaptures a chosen family of their own making in Los Angeles, barely on the cusp of formation.
Much of Lyons’ practice revolves around lensing those they feel a sense of kinship with. “I think that sometimes people see my positionality, or my whiteness, or my name, and think like, ‘Oh, this guy just went into this place and photographed these people, and now he’s gone,’” they say over a Zoom call from their home in LA. “They don’t understand that the people who appear in my photos are my friends.
