sensual abstract queer visuals
January 17, 2023 3:08 AM Subscribe
Help out a VJ! I am looking for sensual visuals, preferably with a homoerotic / queer femme / campy bent. Abstract is welcome (i.e. doesn't have to incorporate people). Suggestions? (Ideas inside.)
Some things I've already got on the list in terms of moodboarding:
* the dance scenes and ending from "Beau Travail"
* scenes from "Pink Flamingos" (Divine forever)
* Dorian Electra's "Flamboyant" music video
* makeup scene from "Girl Walks Home Alone At Night"

The entire body of work, more or less, of Bertrand Mandico - especially 'Les Garcons Sauvages', 'After Blue' and the recent shorts.

Have you watched Better Than Chocolate? There are a bunch of scenes that would qualify, some set up as performances in a queer space. It’s probably pretty dated since the last time I watched it in the 90’s but if Pink Flamingos is on your list it’s worth a view.

Plenty of scenes in Sense8 would probably fit your remit. That series loved a queer orgy!

There are several lovely scenes in Todd Haynes' film Poison. Also lots of material in Derek Jarman films. These are from the 70s and 80s, so have a specific look and may seem fresh to younger viewers unfamiliar with them.

Ah. I've got two suggestions that come to mind along these lines:
Bruce La Bruce (Hustler White, Super 8 1/2, and lots more.
The 1993 video for Porno for Pyro's "Cursed Female," starring a young Buck Angel.

Something Weird, a cult film home video distributor, has a trailer with salacious moments from their catalog. Some of those films are worth looking into for raw material. And of course there is But I'm a Cheerleader, starring Natasha Lyonne, Clea DuVall, Melanie Lynskey, and RuPaul.

Word is But I'm a Cheerleader is being re-released on 4k with a few deleted scenes along the lines of what you're looking for (abstract queer femme sensuality).
