Scars of society collection piece 1

Description

"I'm terrified of becoming a statistic, but I can't help feeling like someday I will be, because I know my mother would rather have a dead daughter than a living son, and I don't know how long I can keep holding on" 

Each work was inspired by a quote from either ftmconfessions.tumblr.com/   
mtfconfessions.tumblr.com/
or transconfession.tumblr.com/
The quote is the title of every piece

The idea of this project was to outline a 'scar' in society, I chose to illustrate the dehumanisation and delegitimisation of transgender individuals and their emotions through these twisted and very stark figures. these beings are all faceless to reinforce the dehumanisation from transphobia. I apologise if I hurt or misrepresented the transgender community in any way, shape or form. but I had only good intentions for this project

I found this through the ftmconfessions page and I really love all of your pieces! I think the quotes and the pictures go along great.
