Lou McCurdy is an image maker, photography graduate and educator based in Edinburgh. Their work can be split into two categories, a contemporary lens based practice and documenting the local drag subculture. Both of these practices informs the other to create an ongoing conversation between the two avenues. The queer community is at the core of their work and is the driving force in their creative practice. When they are not shooting, McCurdy works as a Photographic Technician supporting a BA (Hons) photography course at Edinburgh Napier University as well as running classes for galleries such as Stills and Agitate.
