Hi all. Abby here (Patrick's long time bff).

Patrick’s work has long been a staple of the artistic and queer community in Brooklyn. Their home has served as the set for so many shoots for so many of us: the iconic blanket, the green shag rug, and all that soft natural light.

Recently, Patrick went through an unexpected breakup with their long-term partner, leaving them in uncharted territory.

Their home is not only their safe haven, but also their creative space and a vital part of how they make their living.

During this period of personal transition, we are raising funds to help cover their partner’s share of rent so that Patrick can remain in their home and maintain stability while they navigate this loss and rebuild.

This support will allow them the privacy, security, and continuity needed to grieve, heal, and continue creating the work that means so much to so many of us.

This is not a permanent solution, but a bridge to help ease them into the next chapter of their life and career.

Patrick should be able to stay in the home they love so dearly, continue to make the work we love, and have the familiar space necessary to process what comes next without immediate financial pressure or disruption to their creative practice.

This fundraiser is run through Patrick's account so that all funds can go directly to him.

Thank you all for coming together for our friend.

xx,

Abby
