Description


On Fire Island, the sultry summer air infuses the atmosphere with passion and unrepressed desire, at once igniting comradery and carnality as bodies collide and meld together from The Pines to the Meat Rack. From leisurely beach outings to the unabashed hedonism of The Pines Party, photographer Alex Geana has captured the essence of Fire Island and its community in his seminal photographic series. For over four years, he has merged work and play in a bid to authentically document this historic enclave of queer culture.
