David Antonio Cruz’s stay, take your time, my love brings together portraits from his chosenfamily series with newly commissioned works for ICA SF. Through painting, drawing, and installation, Cruz honors queer kinship and collective care, capturing intimate, celebratory moments rooted in community. His layered, surreal compositions—set against custom wallpaper—respond to San Francisco’s LGBTQ+ histories while affirming love, safety, and presence amid ongoing threats.
