Beholden to the Beholder

The photography series below features several local transgender and gender diverse people from across Southern Ontario using 3D photography. The purpose of this series is to create an open dialogue with the viewer, allowing them to consider how their biases and concepts of gender force them to assume things of people they know nothing about. By using 3D glasses, I ask them to mimic altering how these biases affect our perceptions and invite them to see the person in front of them more clearly. This series was graciously funded by Canada Council for the Arts.
