NY Photographer Captures Androgynous Beauty In Portrait Series
Alexandra Brandon, resides in Baltimore, MD and is pictured as part of the portrait series, "Androgynous". “Androgynous” is a portrait series focusing on people with a single sex who have a combination of both masculinity an femininity in their physical appearance. The subjects are a mix of people who identify with different sexual orientations and genders, breaking assumptions based on current prescribed gender roles. Through the series, I hope to challenge current gender classification and question the way they see current culture gender frameworks and beauty. Through the series I propose male and female dualities are interconnected and complementary forces instead of opposing, thus creating a fluid spectrum of gender and sexuality where the whole is greater than the parts.Celebrating diversity and self-expression, Jonathan Hanson’s New York City portrait series presents gender fluid and androgynous individuals with dignity and nuance, redefining what modern portraiture can represent.
