BOLD AS LOVE
Words by Carrie Stetler | Images by Nema Etebar
Photographer Nema Etebar has seen a lot of love on the streets of Philadelphia, his hometown. For Valentine’s Day, we asked him to choose a few of his favorite images of lovers. The results remind us that love is often the sum of many parts, a composite of trust, happiness, lust, tranquility, protectiveness, vulnerability, joy... To quote Jimi Hendrix, they’re all “bold as love.” While love is universal, expressions of love are as individual as a fingerprint. And while it doesn’t always last, nothing is better than a moment spent loving and being loved in return.
HYCIDE explores the roles we create for ourselves and those created for us, challenging the status quo while bearing witness to the feared, neglected and misunderstood.
Our Mission: Stories of survival and freedom. No judgment.
