Inon Sani

Artist
Inon is a queer photographer from the Peruvian Amazonian region. Based in between Lima and Iquitos, Inon’s work merges the influence of international photographers such as Robert Mapplethorpe and Nan Goldin with the heat of the Amazon.
Specialising on queer portraiture, for the second edition of Marica Formal, he brought us an insightful perspective of the marica profiles from the jungle. Spreading angles of unrepresented queerness in Latin America.
Inon’s work has been featured by international magazines such as Boys Boys Boys and press like Attitude Magazine. Find him on instagram as @inon.sani

We support Trans Rights

Values matter and in Marica Formal the sense of community is at the core of our philosophy. This is why our socks include a donation of 15% to Casa Trans Lima Este, a trans organisation dedicated to giving shelter to trans people struggling with homelessness and security mainly as consequence of exoperiencing rejection from their biological families.
