She and Her
Medium: Digital Art
Size: 23 x 12.5 inches
“The role of women (especially black trans women) in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights is extremely prominent throughout our history, beginning as early as the Stonewall riots with Marsha P. Johnson on the front lines of protests, advocating for safe spaces for transgender and homeless youth. She and Her is a piece that celebrates the diversity of queer women while also serving to recognize the sacrifices such women have made in order to benefit the broader LGBTQ+ community.”
