I shot and edited three videos for the #Stronger project.
#Stronger is a project of the Poetic Operations Collaborative (POC) that aims to develop a decolonial vision of futures of health, fitness and strength for trans and gender non-conforming people. I worked as a research assistant on the #Stronger project and interviewed 3 queer/trans community members about their relationships to movement. The questions I had in mind during this process: What is the relationship between fitness and safety? What are ways that queer/trans/disabled folks are resisting and changing mainstream gym culture? How can we promote health and fitness in our communities without being ableist or fatphobic?
These videos made their first premiere at the contemptorary LA fundraiser on September 24, 2017.
