SELF PORTRAIT

Rodrigo Sens, Artist, Brazil

In the last few years I started to accept my body and my personality more than ever. This year I started this project, FIXO, as a way to show my creativity and work. My body, my masculinity and my sexuality is always something I try to use as expression.

21st Century Makeover

Mikey Estes, Artist, Brooklyn

One way to describe this GIF is as a form of digital drag. It was made with an iPhone app that allows users to apply makeup to photos on their device. I initially made this video because I found myself fascinated with the shortcomings of the live makeup feature and how it might mimic the way we fail gender, or rather how gender fails us.

of pleasures and sorrows

Daniel Pinheiro, Visual Artist/Performer, Porto

This piece answers to a process of dissection of the body connected with a sexual/organic 'device' that interferes with the acknowledgment of a personal and unique individuality, thus identity.

Gender, My Dick (2015)

TORRAINE, Artist, NYC

As a trans person, gender is a big part of my identity; just because I had to fight for it. However, zooming back from that perspective, gender is pretty much hilarious. It’s all just a scheme for social control and to move product. There’s also some sexual energy in there. Sexuality is powerful and important.

Growth

Paradise Khanmalek, Artist, Los Angeles

Women in my family have always had facial hair. Its part of our familial and cultural history. We are women who don't fit into the Western idea of masculinity or femininity; our bodies exist in their own language. We have xx chromosomes, beautiful silky unibrows, moustaches, and beards.

GENERATION XXXY

Jenn Nkiru, Artist, London

This gif consists of images in my library from works that examine gender in interesting ways, and where the XX/XY formation is visually present within each frame itself.

The subjects in these images are not bound by cultural expectancies or gender binarism. They are representative of the future generation of freer thinkers.

The images included are the works of Rashaad Newsome, Johnathan Huget x Thomas Goldblum and myself, Jenn Nkiru.

GIF Sculpture VII

Joe Winograd, Artist, New York

In collaboration with lenticular printing company Gifpop, this piece pushes the boundaries for the animated GIF, turning the digital art medium into a kinetic art object that moves and animates on its own. Hung from the ceiling, these geodesic GIF sculptures float in real space like a GIF floating in a browser window.
