Luiza

Luiza

This is a portrait project, named “Luiza”, in which I captured aspects of the day to day life of Luiza, in her home in the countryside of Brazil. I wanted to explore the daily occurrences of being a gender non-conforming woman, in a country poisoned by LGBTQ+phobia/queerphobia and toxic theology.

For Me, By Me

For Me, By Me

The shoot’s idea came from when I began to look into old magazines for inspiration. However, rather than finding inspiration, I found discomfort. Most of the models were white and whenever women of colour were included they were surrounded by stereotypical props.
