My Gender States

My Gender States

If you happen to be in Ann Arbor Michigan this is well worth experiencing.

Last week I had the pleasure of being at the opening of "My Gender States", an exhibition conceived by Rogerio Pinto. It was wonderful seeing Rogerio and all the people at the opening event. Thank you Rogerio for sharing your story. The content of the exhibit emotionally resonated with me.

The exhibition will run at Lane Hall from January 23-August 13, 2024. Through photos, sculptures, and performance, Pinto shares his and his family's grief over the death of his sister when she was three and he was just ten months. As he grew, Pinto took in others' reactions to his gender expressions, and soon he came to believe that he was a kind of ?replacement? for his deceased sibling.
