Open for Interpretation, 2021

In 2021, I was contracted by It Gets Better Canada to develop an series of artworks based on my intersectional identities of queerness, ethnicity, culture, and more, as expressed through fashion. I decided to pursue a digital self-portrait series featuring six “primary eras” of my life thus far (2016-2021), displaying how my style has changed along with other aspects of my identity.

This embedded video takes viewers through my creative process and conceptual thinking.

I had not yet come out as non-binary yet by the time of publishing this video.
