QuoteA Series of Questions explores the power dynamics inherent in the questions asked of transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, gender non-conforming, and gender-variant people.Many documentary photographic projects that deal with trans issues exploit the genders of their subjects, pointing to an "otherness" or inappropriately exoticizing their bodies. This project seeks instead to make visible the transphobia and gender-baiting that can become part of everyday interactions and lives, forming a fuller picture of the various lived experiences.
QuoteWhat is this exactly?I am photographing people who have been on the receiving end of transphobic and gender-baiting questions. Participants are photographed holding a wooden sign (provided) of a question they've personally been asked.
