Fernando Carpaneda of New York (via Brazil) brings us some wonderfully mad and queer work this month, and we truly couldn’t be more thrilled about it if we tried. While his subjects are often serious, melancholic, maybe even a little mysterious, there is something playful and undeniably erotic in each piece, and we can’t help but feel that Carpaneda himself is somewhere within his work – beckoning us to look closer, to challenge our own perception, and to fully immerse ourselves in the world he creates through his art. Naturally, we can’t help but oblige, and we don’t think you’ll be able to either! ~ Madelyn Olson
