Not So Binary project

Representation matters. Far too often, people who sit outside the gender/sexuality binary are only represented in the media as victims of violence and discrimination. We are changing that by representing the power and creativity of bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer and non-binary people in the Not So Binary project

The Not So Binary project is a photographic exploration and unpacking of gender. It explores and responds to the use of language as a weapon against the LGBTIAQ+ community. It features members of the Canberra LGBTIAQ+ community, arranged and shot by their peers.

Participants

Photoshoots have now been completed and we thank all participants for their time and willingness to be part of this exhibit.
