Frames of reference

Description:

Trans cartoonist Sarah Allen Reed of Blackwork Productions compiles snippets of self portraits she's drawn over the years in different publications across the journey of her life and transition. Each illustration includes the date and publication as well as short reflections on the reality of her life in those moments. Frames includes a message to the reader explaining the zine's origins and purpose, with the final page including a photo of Sarah in 2018 when the zine was published alongside her most recent self portrait. — Nayla Delgado
