This episode was recorded at over Skype with Berlin based artist Yishay, who was commissioned to create a piece of public art, ‘Nothing About Us Without Us’ for the outside of the Marlborough Theatre during Trans Pride Brighton, 2016.
We talked about art and Trans Pride
About surrounding yourself with people who challenge you
About the systematic erasure of Trans Women from museum collections and galleries
About how not being killed is awesome.
