Part of the print series Florida Untitled, a long-term photographic project by the artist Stefano Lemon.

The reportage stems from the artist’s need to document the hardcore punk scene during his stay in South Florida between 2016 and 2019. Like a real tribe during a ritual, fueled by their common contempt for the status quo, eccentric Hells Angels and dancing freaks are just some of the subjects present in the shots of the photographer, who wanted to impress on b/w film the harsh reality of the southern states, bent by conservatism and urban gentrification.

“This is a community nobody knows about; it’s untouched, hidden, and poor. You need to dig and search for these guys because it’s underground. When you think of Miami, you imagine spring break, clubs, palm trees, and white beaches. Maybe this ‘secrecy’ is what’s keeping the scene alive and authentic.”

“We are living in a world dominated by social interactions with commercial purposes. Unfortunately, social media are inhibiting spontaneity and refraining us from living authentic experiences. Punk is not how you dress, how many followers you have, or how many albums you sold last month. It’s about keeping a DIY attitude against the establishment.”
