Laurence Philomène
Laurence Philomène, 23, is a Canadian photographer, mentored by Ivan Shaw (excutive photo director at Vogue), known for her fascinating and colorful aesthetic. In her work, Laurence uses color theory to explore powerful themes such as feminity and gender identity.
Her new ongoing series "Non-Binary portraits", is the result of Philomene's active desire to challenge the under-representation of non-binary individuals, by portraying her friends the way they'd ideally want to be seen.
"My aim with this series is to showcase a diversity of trans & non-binary experiences that tend to be under-represented in mainstream media & give non-binary subjects agency regarding how they are represented. It’s also an opportunity for me to document my friends & their unique style & point of view. As someone who identifies as non-binary it’s obviously a very personal topic for me but I wanted the photos to go beyond my own identity and really be a collaboration between me & the models."
