摘要

Abstract

In the protracted struggle for bodily liberation and affirmative action

photography has become an important battleground for Queer's affirmative action

as it serves as a means of documenting and making Queer's bodies more visible to the world. By analysing the medium of the male Queer body in photography through the lens of somaesthetics

we will understand how it serves as a site of aesthetic experience

connecting the real material world with the imaginary sensual world

and the private and public areas in order to know how Queer uses it to achieve the emotional expression of identity projection

self-satisfaction pseudo-real characters

and the experience of empathetic feelings.
