Holding Hands

Two hands intertwined, fingers gently clasped together as a couple watches the festivities unfold around them. The simple act of holding hands in public, something many take for granted, becomes a quiet celebration of love and belonging at Cork Pride.

While this year’s event was smaller than last year’s celebration (perhaps due to the absence of Eurovision star Bambie Thug, or simply the rising costs of travel), the energy remained undimmed. The parade began on Grand Parade before winding its way down St. Patrick Street, with dozens of people proudly carrying a massive pride flag that rippled in the hot, humid afternoon air.

After the parade, the community gathered at Kennedy Quay for the traditional after-party, where the real magic happened. Gay men danced together in the summer heat, some bare-chested, others waving colorful fans as they laughed and moved to the music. Same-sex couples like the one in this photograph stood hand in hand, watching the celebration with quiet contentment, expressing their love openly in a space where they felt safe to do so. These moments, the dancing, the hand-holding, the unguarded laughter, show exactly why Pride events are needed now more than ever.

The laughter, the energy, and the community were all so beautifully, defiantly joyful.

More photos from Cork Pride coming tomorrow.

‘HoldingHands’ Acts Like a Pickpocket With Taiwan Orgs – Source: www.darkreading.com https://ciso2ciso.com/holdinghands-acts-like-a-pickpocket-with-taiwan-orgs-source-www-darkreading-com/ #rssfeedpostgeneratorecho #DarkReadingSecurity #CyberSecurityNews #HoldingHands #DARKReading

From the Glass Art Society closing party last night- I got 99 people to hold hands and complete the circuit to activate our "Your Magic Is Real" sculpture! Alicia Eggert was there and was excited- me too- what a fun time!

Its crazy just how far a 3 or 5 volt signal can go- but I guess people really are a lot of conductive water. I am wondering how we can find the theoretical maximum amount of people holding hands to activate the sculpture? Could we perhaps get it to a music festival or something? Coachella? We might need more neon :)

The conference was so fun! Nice to connect with so many old friends - and meet so many new ones! Future apologies to everyone's name that I will forget and have already forgotten ;)

I guess I have emails to send now...

Your Magic Is Real installed in Arlington, #Texas !

Phew, on Monday evening, this was installed in NYC, and now, Thursday evening it is installed in Texas. In 2 days we deinstalled it, and drove over 1,500 miles in a box truck before installing it in Texas in a day! I even remade the "U" in "YOU" after it broke in transit! I still cannot believe we did that! None of it possible without the amazing teams we had on both ends.

Officially, this piece takes a week to do this, but in this way, Urbanglass could have it for its big fundraiser gala, AND it could be installed for the Glass Art Society conference this year in Texas. The Arts institution admins won't ever see this post ;) -they are too busy scrolling reels.

Your Magic Is Real (made in collaboration with Marco, Jason, and Alicia Eggert) opens at the Arlington Museum of Art in Texas tomorrow evening- alongside the De La Torre brothers- I am so excited!

Since it has started to snow today in my city, I've decided to post this winter themed commission I've made for LunaFuryNight :3 She's a longtime customer of mine and has always been a pleasure to work with!

The piece itself was challenging as I am out of routine for fullbody scene artworks but I think it turned out well despite that :3

83% of #LGBTQIA #people want to see more #couples #holdinghands

The #survey was carried out by #global #nonprofit #PrideWide and #BarefootWine.

Two-thirds of #LGBTQ+ #Brits #avoid #holdinghands with their #partners over #safety #fears.

In the summer, #queer #people told #PinkNews how they are now #hiding their #identities in public out of #fear of being #violently #attacked on the street.

An unlikely setting, some may say, for a discussion about same-sex couples in 2023 in countries like UK still being reluctant/fearful/even ashamed to show affection in public space & to reveal their relationship, things opposite-sex couples take for granted - Adam & Ian in BBC radio soap The Archers.

Still, it could have been me speaking…

#LGBTQ #people in #Ghana are #underattack. Here’s #howithappened.

If someone #suspects that you, or someone you’re with, is #gay — either from your #gait, the way you #dress, or who you may be #Holdinghands with — you could be #attacked, #kidnapped or even #lynched.

Basically, I ain't goin' anywhere any time soon.

Personally I would love some #platonictouch #friendships. I am very #touchdeprived and I can’t make #romantic or #sexual connections with people I just met but I can easily make #platonic #touch right away with new people, such as #holdinghands or #hugging a person. #AutisticLove #NeurodivergentLove

Happy holding hands https://www.flickr.com/photos/woolamaloo_gazette/52876007119/in/dateposted/
