Plaster cast of owner’s hand as a 10 year old, mallorca in 2011. Represents me figuring out my identity as a 13 year old. Important to me because I fixed it up from a broken state, during a time in my life I also felt fragile. This was the same year I met my internet friends who were my first trans support network, who helped me pick my name + still support me to this day. The date of donation (20/4) is the date I came out to my family in 2016 + the date of my first gender clinic appointment in 2018!
