CYNDY WARWICK
Cyndy Warwick presents beautiful black-and-white dual portraits of lesbian couples ranging from teenagers to goldenagers. Taken in the 1990s, this work explores the lives of gay couples around the United States, and was published in a hard cover book titled "Women Together." The subjects include prominent lesbian figures such as Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon. These images are displayed alongside interviews recounting stories of their gay experience.
