Balam

Balam is an independent contemporary queer photography magazine—the first and only of its kind in Latin America. It promotes artists seeking to express themselves and expand their work beyond borders through themes aiming to expose multiple realities and support the struggles of minorities and dissident communities.

This publication’s goal is to transform, make visible, challenge, and (re)invent critical discourses that engage with social, cultural, and political issues. From an anti-hegemonic stance and with a poetic and unconventional approach, it challenges traditional photographic practices.
