As one of the biggest queer activist accounts on Instagram Matt started off as an aesthetic photography account. After posting his unique make-up looks featuring important and thought-provoking messages and slogans around queer topics, his account blew up. He now has an important platform to raise awareness and spark dialogue on social and political issues affecting the queer community.

In his talk Matt will explore how he integrates social media as a tool for queer activism and to fight stigma around HIV and other important queer topics. He will share his insights on his inspiring and empowering work and how he deals with the backlash and criticism that often comes with speaking out.
