The Collection

Tag: The scans are from my 'reflective journal' that we had to keep at my art foundation. I don't know if its because my project was about transness that I felt able to so freely expose my internal fear and confusion. So here it is. In these drawings I am trying to reimagine myself. Trans men existed then, "ftm", but non-binary was almost a myth that I'd collected scraps of. The funniest thing about all of this is how subconscious it was. I wasn't aware I was trans, really. Art was the only place I gave name to it. But in doing so, I was able to give myself the clarity and certainty I needed to realise myself and come out.
