Am I that Name?

Am I that Name? explores the complex and fluid nature of gender and identity in an often discriminatory, binary world. This work is a researched-based visual diary into Queer theory and self/selves. The collection challenges the normative hierarchical power structure of gender and sexuality through pictogram-inspired figurative constructions and the queer use of everyday materials and objects such as industrial equipment, hardware, stage sets, and decorative wallpaper.
