An Exploration Of Collage As A Voice For Non-Binary Identity

This practice-led, artistic inquiry considers the potential of queer collage as
a visual communication device for expressing the identity and perspectives
of a non-binary person navigating a world of gender conformity. The study
is framed as an autoethnographic inquiry that employs heuristic methods
to explore collage as a process of building and unbuilding. This process is
actualised by reflective self-dialogue, iterative practice, and reflection on
external feedback. The thesis contributes to emerging discourses and artistic
practices related to contemporary non-binary gender identity and expression.
