Sunday’s Child

‘Sunday’s child is good and gay’,

With cheekiness and play, Hannah Brontë Queerifies a phrase from an old nursery rhyme that describes the temperament of a child, based on the day they were born.

Brontë uses this term to explore queer happiness, joy and intimacy through her portraiture series which shows us contemporary families and relationships that celebrate the diversity and fluidity of gender and sexuality.

Capturing Queer Joy amidst nurturing and protective backdrops, Brontë draws connections between individuals and their surrounding environment, revealing joy in self-discovery and relationships with people and places that inspire love. Each location was chosen as a natural environment nothing man made. This was to also embed the truth that queer relationships are ever present in the natural world too.
