Orlando Myxx

Orlando Myxx is an Italian-born London-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses photography, film-making and performance. As a non-binary trans-masc person their research mainly focuses on the exploration of transness as a mental, physical and cultural experience. Myxx explores how gender non-conforming people are not only questioning the gender norms but are actually opening up spaces for new gender subjectivities and for a cultural change. Being intimacy their signature approach, Myxx investigates autobiographical themes of gender transitioning as well as other people’s relation to gender. Their practice is informed by the writings of J. Butler, J. Halberstam and V. Woolf and by the works of H. Cassils, C. Opie and B. Viola and often contains references to the history of Art.
