The project examines the intricate interplay of an individual's social and political identities, uncovering unique forms of discrimination and privilege. The pieces harmonize conflicting ideologies: oppression vs. empowerment and repression vs. expression. This juxtaposition invites us to reconsider our definitions of these concepts within the framework of contemporary socio-cultural norms, transcending gender and orientation.
