The touring exhibition brings together a gallery of portrait photographs, personal ephemera, and audio stories, marking the culmination of an ambitious project. Young LGBTQ+ people and their allies interviewed and photographed trans and gender-diverse people across generations, working together to co-create the exhibition.
The recorded interviews will be transcribed and deposited with Nottinghamshire Archives where they will be permanently preserved as a collection accessible to future generations.
The project celebrates rich histories, from community resistance to everyday life and joyful expression, honouring the full breadth of trans and gender-diverse experiences across Nottinghamshire.
