Black British queer photographer and archive curator, Ajamu X, has been at the forefront of genderqueer photography since the early 1990s. Published in a print run of only 500 copies following the artist’s successful Kickstarter campaign, AJAMU : ARCHIVE unapologetically celebrates queer black bodies, desire, difference and pleasure activism.

This limited-edition, signed artist’s book includes photographic works that have never been exhibited or published before alongside specially commissioned texts from Johnny Golding and Dr Sheena Calvert, contextualising Ajamu’s practice at this pivotal point in his career. This beautifully designed book reflects the aesthetic and high production values embodied in the artist’s work, and features an small postcard print of Diamond Pornstar alongside a unique set of bookmarks.
