David Wojnarowicz (1954-1992), who died of AIDS in 1992, interwove his life and work to wrestle with issues of identity, sexuality, and the fragility of life. In opposition to Mapplethorpe, Wojnarowicz delivered a dark vision of physical decline and death. Entirely self-taught, Wojnarowicz relied on collage, paint, and text to challenge what he called the "pre-invented existence" that discriminates and imposes a power structure on people based on ethnicity, gender, race, and sexual preference.
