The Outsider’s Gallery presents TRANS FOREVER
Speaking beyond precarity, beyond temporality... to the future, to forever...
The work
The Outsider’s Gallery plays host to 4 large scale Trans Pride flags. Measuring at 8ft x 5ft, these flags were hung throughout the display area vertically, with each panel of colour connecting to the next creating a flowing procession of blue, pink and white. Alongside this, a pair of LED lights and cut out acrylic plastics, reading ‘TRANS FOREVER’, were suspended to focus the eye in the middle of the display.
As evening approaches the LED lights rotate across the flags and transform the exhibition into a multilayered visual feast.
About
This display is a celebration of TRANS people and our presence, especially at VFD; it’s also a celebration of Transmissions, which has been running now for 5 years! Transmissions is a space for Trans+ people, by Trans+ people.
Every Monday evening from 7pm TRANSMISSIONS run a beautiful, intimate, sober meet-ups... come say HEYA. These events are FREE for Trans+ people!
VFD has been a soft hub for so much trans activism and community... and we have many, many powerful trans individuals to thank for that... from a space to have discussions about our health, to organise, to watch films, to have creative workshops, clothes swaps, presentations, tattooing, to making DIY poundshop packers and breast forms! and much, much more.
