In the course of these photo-sessions, the models have often resolved to a ‘performed heterosexual’ stereotypical behaviour that has prompted me to further explore how identity is shaped through specific, uncontested language and imagery. In this sense, my work explores the notion of ‘fixed identity’ as it is understood in a white, heterosexual hegemonic culture. My practice addresses expectations about gender and sexuality, but mainly calls into question the canon that implements personal and social behaviour.
