SYNOPSIS:

« Hydrotherapy » plays on the idea of having to navigate negative or violent reactions, comments or outside-looks after coming out as gay. This self-published zine guides the reader through a series of small, mysterious photographic vignettes, created from a recollection of bathing and shower scenes from television series (notably « American Horror Story », « Riverdale », « How to Get Away with Murder » and more) — in which male characters are either intimate with one another or are presented in a homoerotic fashion. There is, however an invisible menace spreading throughout the pages, which were conceived as the walls of a ceramic tiled bathhouse — thus culminating in a tragic ending. The pink paper references the diluted blood washed-out from trembling hands, going down the bathtub drain, as we quickly understand that a crime has been committed.
