inspired by kate bornstein’s notion that ‘gender is a playground’, this interactive spiral bound flip-book explores the expanse of identity beyond the binary. using ISTD’s ‘the spaces between’ as an open brief, the book’s pairing of queer iconography & overlooked display fonts aim to highlight the fluidity and comfort within a space of ‘gender liminality’!
