FOR ACCEPTANCe AND
AGAINST NORMATIVITY
About
Kings & Queens is an internationally acclaimed photography series of drag kings & queens with their other halves: themselves. Each image features two personalities of the same individual laid bare; portrayed in juxtaposition and constructed using photo montage. The subject is physically placed next to their alter ego, the drag king or queen
– or is it vice versa?
OBJECTIVE & IMPACT
The Kings & Queens aim is to challenge binarity and male dominant normativity. The portraits highlight people’s multifaceted nature while seeking to promote a deeper understanding of the self. It champions social awareness of everyone’s right to express their identity. The work in itself is not a protest nor is it political. This is why the work can be used for endless purposes and collaborations.
