"Hello,
the world
My name is Imogen and I am studying Photography at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, I am in my final year.

As a disabled person I have previously done self portraits attempting to offer insight into a different world. I have worked with women who self-harmed, young girls who have eating disorders and people in gay and lesbian relationships. I enjoy creating images which challenge people's beliefs, and show them a side of things they may not have seen before. Collectively we have an opportunity to dispel myths and explain things that might be misunderstood.

This year I would like my project to be based on people who consider themselves to be gender queer.
The world seems stuck on an opinion that there should be two genders, and Gender queer isn't a term you hear often with many not understanding the concept of gender being fluid. I would love the chance to challenge and explain this, and desperatly need your help!

I am currently looking for volunteers of different ages, gender identities and sexual orientations, regardless of relationship status, those moving through transition or those still unsure of where they are. I'd love it if you feel you could help me.

I am looking forward to this and think it will be a very exciting project. I live in Cambridge and am looking for people who live close, or would accept a small amount towards travelling expenses and the offer of a place to stay the night if this is needed.

As a disabled student, I am unable to offer payment for your help but would love to give you a copy of the best edited images on a CD.

I have been working as a photographer for six years and you can see some of my work online here; http://www.flickr.com/photos/indigoclouds/ & http://www.indigoclouds.com/. If you would like more information or just want to ask some questions then feel free to contact me: Imogen@indigoclouds.com
