Wandering In The Desire Room
reflects Bo's experience of growing up queer in East Asia,
where the lack of sex education and public awareness of genderand sexual diversity fostered confusion, fear, andself-suppression.
By reconstructing scenes from his adolescence,
he brings to light memories once overlooked, allowing them to be both seen and reexamined.
Through this process, self-portraiture becomes an act of both self-exposure and self-repair.
By collapsing the roles of photographer, subject, andspectator,
Bo transforms vulnerability into resistance, reclaiming queer visibility through acts of looking.
The project includes a large unframed print and a self-published photobook.
