[June 28 2020]
For the occasion of the Pride Month, Rimowa has chosen to highlight five young LGBTQ + artists, each illustrating their own summer romances in their own way.
Purple has selected to share with you the illustrations of Jeffrey Cheung.
“These two images are inspired by observations from my travels observing queer men cruising and catching glances in parks, bath houses, bars, and public spaces. It is always exciting to travel to new cities and meet new people. I have seen lots of similar spaces, bars and clubs, for meeting and cruising for gay cis men all over in different cities, but would love to see more spaces for queer women, and trans folks which I feel like is almost non existent or very few.”
