Description
“Monster” directly references the dehumanizing language used against trans people. With this print, I wanted to show that the so-called “monster” from the news was once a happy kid too. By depicting myself smiling, I aim to challenge the notion that being trans is a terrible affliction, we’re not monsters, just people.
