“The piece takes documentation footage of a recent anti-trans rally I witnessed. My body is blanketed in the projected image of this video. Their hate and fear of trans bodies being articulated by the topography of my trans body. An exploration of the effects of Trump’s hateful rhetoric both on the emboldening of hateful demonstrations and on feelings of fear within minority communities.”
