Marc of Brooklyn is a collection of towels and prints that pays de facto homage to gay artist and icon Tom of Finland.
The work reimagines queer masculinity through a softer, contemporary lens—drawing bold lines and coded gestures into everyday objects. The pieces were presented against custom back-painted and printed wallpaper panels referencing “The Ramble”, a secluded cruising spot with a decades-long history as a site of outdoor queer connection and expression.
Both collection and installation celebrate covert gestures, layered codes, and the unapologetic presence of queer bodies in public and domestic space.
