The Kids Are All Night

A seven-year portrait project photographing the people of House of Yes — Brooklyn's home for queer club kid culture, circus performance, and radical self-expression. What started as a camera at a party became a sustained document of an underground community: hundreds of faces, costumes, personas, and moments of connection captured across years of weekly events.

These aren't event photos. They're portraits of individuals who showed up as exactly who they wanted to be — in a space that existed specifically to make that possible. Taken together, they form a picture not of a venue but of a subculture: the performers, the regulars, the first-timers, the creatures of the night who built something real in a Bushwick warehouse.

What's shown here is the merest fraction — a selection from thousands of portraits of patrons and performers taken over the life of this project at one of New York's most legendary nightclubs.
