G(end)er Swap style story comprising a written note and Polaroid photograph.

G(end)er Swap recalls "This polaroid photo was taken at the first G(end)er Swap event held at Shift Gallery in Cardiff: a clothes swap with an opportunity for attendees to take polaroids of themselves and write style stories to accompany them. This polaroid photo is of Bee. Bee writes: “I flow between masc and fem styles. My Queer friends help me feel more confident [in] expressing my identity”. Photo description: Bee is featured in a black and white photograph taken with an Instax camera at the first G(end)er Swap event held at Shift Gallery in 2019. They are wearing a white long sleeve shirt, a head wrap and dark framed glasses. They smile at the camera holding up two peace signs. Behind them you can see other style stories and photos taped to the wall”.
