This photo is a self portrait I did for one of my first major photography assignments. Over, quarantine I found myself discovering more about my queer/trans identity and it was hard to accept. I used this piece as a way to confront myself and to fully see and accept who I am. It is an unapologetic self portrait of my blackness and my queerness up close and personal.

Black and white photograph of six miniature remote controlled boats scattered within a miniature water scene with a couple of isles and mountains in the background.

Nute Callum | “Tiny Sailors”

A 3 panel drawing made with chalk pastels. The first panel focuses on the eyes, the same as the face of the child sitting up in the middle panel, and the last panel has the eyes blocked out, on a close up of the face of the child in the middle panel. The middle panel shows a child sitting with hands coming from out of the frame one holding a belt, and pointing threatening the child, the next set is holding open a bible, and the last hand is holding a makeup brush to the face of the child. Each panel has varying levels of paint splattered across them to mess up the images.
