"Mine" is a growing collection of daily fine art self-portraits thath turn an eye toward transgender men. With nearly 800 photos, "Mine" has a breadth that highlights honesty, emotion, and desirability through the ordinary, the everyday, and the unremarkable.
Trans narratives are often told by cisgender people (people whose birth sex aligns with their gender) and mainly focus on transition stories or victimization, missing out on the lived experiences of trans people— their successes, their emotional lives, their relationships, and their work. "Mine" shows one transgender man's life and hopes to humanize a population that's largely invisible in mainstream media.
At its core, "Mine" is reclamation of how transgender men are seen.
