In an oral interview with NYU’s The Latinx Project, Brooklyn artist Felli Maynard describes their three-volume photographic work as follows: "I'm very interested in showing equal representation of people like me. I've just started doing a series of self-documentation, self-portraits… I'm coming more into myself and understanding who I am and also showing a lot of people that transness and gender nonbinary-ness and all that comes in many shapes and sizes. It's fluid. There's no one way that you have to look in order to be trans or to be whatever. If that's part of you, that's part of you. And through this work, I'm doing self-portraits. I'm writing journal entries. I'm also coupling it up with family photographs and things like that. Doing this deep dig to free myself but also hopefully free someone else in the process."
