Outskirts

Edited by Flo Brooks

Outskirts is a social practice art project, focused on exploring the intersection between liminality and identity through visual and textual exchanges. The project invites participants to give their liminal experience a material form, and attend to the social and cultural implications of it through either publication or portrait exchange. Outskirts places emphasis on trans and gender non-conforming narratives but sees these categories as permeable, shifting, and part of a much broader network of allies, friends and conspirators. It hopes to engender creative collision and community through the process of sharing and exchanging, allowing for a more inclusive, cohesive and stimulating dialogue that reflects the ways we navigate the world we live in.
