Come Out
Place de l'Hôtel de Ville
Outdoor

The 1980s and 1990s in Britain were marked by the radical measures of Margaret Thatcher’s conservative policies. In this context, Sunil Gupta documented social protests between 1985 and 1995. Through a direct approach, the activist photographer, who is part of the LGBTQIA+ community, captures gestures of solidarity and signs of belonging. Placed in a symbolically and politically significant location in Vevey, Come Out celebrates a chosen family, forged through collective mobilization and shared values.
