Dykotomoy

Dykotomy is two bodies of work, Lessons of Anatomy: How To Not Be Lesbian and Dykotomy, that both investigate the duality of a hidden identity. I am a queer woman grappling with being closeted for most of my life; these works reflect on how internalized homophobia has manifested for me. This thesis was conduced between January 2021 and May 2022. The process started with months of research and idea formulation, it transformed into months of experimenting and testing, and it culminated in a final exhibition.
