Patricia Gloum met Rob three years ago and filmed a pro-LGBTQ passion dance project, ‘Do U for U‘. Fast forward they are doing another art piece together, a docu-poem-experimental short. An interesting mix of genres. Rob a former ballet dancer from Juilliard NYC dance school, narrates a poem inspired by his life as he is having a conversation with Josiah, his adopted son in the LGBTQ ballroom Voguing scene. This is common practice, to adapt to each other to survive in NYC being both 19 & 21 years old.
This is Rob’s way of creating his own family.
