Assignment for class; the theme was identity. As i'm becoming more comfortable with my identity, and by extension, my body, i wanted to capture what my own body looks like as a trans person. not only did i want to make a statement that not all trans bodies have to be the same, but i also wanted to practice artistic nudity at the same time.
