Who to subscribe to: Portraits and LGBTQ + interviews from Russia

CONTINUE TO TELL about decent accounts in social networks through which you can view the whole world.

The project "Visibility", dedicated to the life of LGBTQ + representatives in Russia, was invented by photographer Kirill Voinov and illustrator Lisa Weigult: Kirill is responsible for touching film portraits and video interviews of heroes, Lisa for interviews, texts and illustrations. "It was important for us to give an opportunity to speak to people who are deprived of an unbiased representation in traditional media, and to remove all (as far as possible) elements of moderation, having themselves faded into the background," say the creators of Visibility. The almanac exists on several platforms: in instagram they publish portraits of heroes with quotes, on YouTube you can watch video interviews, you can listen to their audio versions on iTunes and SoundCloud. Among the heroes who have already starred for "Visibility", attentive readers of Wonderzine recognize Nikita - you saw him in our shooting, dedicated to queer teenagers.

Recently, Cyril and Liza opened an account at Patreon: those who support the project with a small amount can get access to closed posts, mentioning their name in the credits, Liza’s drawings and other pleasant rewards. The plans - a printed version of "Visibility" and icons.
