Elisabeth Ohlson (born 28 May 1961) is a Swedish photographer and an artist. In her works she often photographs representatives of LGBT people. Ohlson, a lesbian, is most noted for her exhibition Ecce homo which portrayed Jesus among gay and transgender people. The scenes were modern versions of stories of the New Testament, such as Jesus riding a bicycle in a gay parade, paralleling the triumphal entry of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. With the work, Ohlson wanted to remind people that Jesus worked with and helped the outcasts of the society.
