I have worked with Amanda across a host of TV projects starting back in 2012. The A Word, Ripper Street, Soldiers Arts Academy, Sian Reeves “Remember Me”, and Leslie Ash to name but a few.
We have since collaborated on personal projects, one of which is Still Me.
After the success of 2019’s Transparent Love exhibition at BFI Flare, Amanda created Still Me, an original series of beautiful portraits of ordinary people who have lived and are living extraordinary lives.
The images approached the subjects with honesty and dignity, exploring themes of gender and identity through a profoundly human lens.
Amanda said at the launch, “I feel we cannot know or understand fully what it is like to live a transgender life, unless we are living one, but we can know and understand people who do. I hope these portraits give a sense of meeting these amazing people. I thank them for sharing time with me, it has been an honour to get to know them.“
