Anthony Cudahy

Anthony Cudahy (1989, US) crafts emotive paintings and drawings that delve into queer identity and intimacy. His art, steeped in historical research, navigates themes like loneliness, desire, and safety, drawing from personal narratives and crafted mythologies. In his works, figures engage in everyday activities within domestic settings, their emotions and gazes directed beyond the canvas, lit by vibrant hues that infuse a sense of ritualistic energy.

He begins his creative process with collages and sketches sourced from various queer photo archives and family collections, meticulously refining compositions through a keen eye for color and technique.
