Queer Muslim Life in Smoke

French Algerian photographer Camille Farrah Lenain’s series explores the lives of queer Muslim individuals in France through intimate portraits that balance visibility and anonymity. The project, inspired by her late gay Uncle Farid and involving around 50 participants, emphasizes themes of faith, identity, and belonging, often using symbols from Islam and motifs like smoke and pigeons. The resulting photobook, “Made of Smokeless Fire,” documents diverse experiences while honoring lives lived in secrecy and highlighting the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ Muslims amid rising Islamophobia and anti-Muslim acts in France.
