Skullcap

Photographer David Piñeros dives into a noir community on the outskirts of Nashville, portraying the characters that he encounters in black-&-white. Post-punk photographs depicting a queer and dystopian side of the city.

His work uses elements from street photography and portraiture. The frames are not staged but rather a product of coincidence and access to the community. This allows him to make intimate almost psychological captures of this subculture. Taken mostly at night, the portraits feel grimy and ominous.

His upcoming zine ‘Skullcap’ debuts a series of 20 photographs from this project and launches at Zeitgeist with an accompanying exhibition of 10 pieces.
