BOYS WON’T STOP
is a raw, physical performance in which five men embrace as many facets of masculinity as possible. It is a performance about male emancipation, where the discomfort of being a man takes center stage. If we want to strive for equality between all genders, men must also take action. Emancipation isn’t just for women. The man has a role to play. What does masculinity encompass, and how can we reshape the boundaries that we, as men, have created ourselves?
During this project, I was responsible for photographing the performers, creating the poster, making the teaser, and managing the Instagram page from May to July 2024.
