Vision Statement

Exploring the shedding of femininity and presentation of masculinity, the artist spent a year altering her body with intense diet and exercise for this project. To be the father's son, to carry on the family name, to be the tragic sacrifice, to be a god; 'I am that I am' contrasts the way in which gender presentation affects human experience and relationships.
