Mariette Pathy Allen
People who are gender non-conforming embody the questions that many of us ask ourselves at one time or another: How do I recognize myself? What is the relationship between body and mind? What is the essence of a human being?
My work on transgender and gender identity exists within the context of my life as an artist, and the questions that I’ve explored over the years. To give additional perspective on my work as a whole, I will show examples of other projects that have interested me.
-Mariette Pathy Allen
