JasoN

“Jason” is a solo work that tackles feelings of pain and shame and explores themes of transformation and embodiment through the vantage point of trans-masculinity.

This piece is a series of attempts, through the completion of tasks, at getting out of a state of pain and shame and into a more pleasurable state.
