“Can I take a Polaroid of you?” Photographer Peter van der Wal, also known as Sinful Son, takes people backstage, away from the noise of the venue. No flash, no smoke. Just a white wall, a warm flash. The queer body, radiant and uncompromising. With his iconic Big Shot Polaroid and vintage flash cubes, Van der Wal immortalized hundreds of intimate moments in Amsterdam, Berlin, London and other cities. What started as a simple question turned into a stunning series of portraits and a colorful celebration of the international queer community. “Beautiful Creatures” is an homage to queer nightlife; a love letter to freedom, hedonism, diversity, chosen families and the right to be seen.
