The InQueery
Editorial illustration created for The InQueery, America's leading gay research corporation. The artwork introduces the Emotional Support Gay (ESG), a pivotal figure in LGBTQ+ dynamics. From cultural translation to embodying the archetype of the gay best friend, the ESG plays a vital role in shaping queer narratives. Through vibrant imagery and nuanced symbolism, this illustration amplifies the voices and experiences of individuals navigating the complexities of identity and emotion within the community. Let us honor and celebrate the Emotional Support Gay — the unsung hero of queer culture.
