"Formen filas" offers an intimate and captivating insight into the life of Choriza May, an iconic figure in the international drag world. Through a carefully curated selection of photographs taken backstage where the performers prepare to give their all, this book goes beyond the bright lights and flashy costumes that symbolize drag to show us what happens behind the scenes. From the rush and anticipation inherent in a DragRace show to moments of stillness and waiting, these images reveal both the vulnerability and courage needed to take on one of the most challenging and subversive roles in show business. The book traces a journey from the dimness of the dressing room to the spotlight on stage, composing a profound collective narrative that speaks to the essence and complexity of drag life. A brilliant visual discourse resonating with works like José Esteban Muñoz's "Cruising Utopia," Jason Baumann's "Love and Resistance," and the cult film "Wigstock" by Barry Shils. Choriza May’s work is not just a photographic record but a manifesto on resilience and the capacity for transformation, offering a counterpoint to the public perception of drag culture, often overshadowed by stereotypes and prejudices. This book is a true treasure for photography lovers, queer culture scholars, and, of course, fans of Choriza May.
