"This series is a search for bodies in flux—bodies suspended between being and becoming, between presence and quiet. Trans bodies hold within them the weight of change, resistance, solitude, and longing. These are stories not always spoken, but felt in the spaces where they linger, unseen. Isolation is not mere emptiness, but a realm where the self is shaped in the silent absence of validation. In this void, identity is both shattered and made whole, where the body speaks without permission, yet demands to be.
disappearance, between becoming and dissolving. Bodies in constant flux, always unfinished, always becoming. Isolation is not absence, but a space where identity is forged in solitude. These bodies are not victims; they are creators, asserting their presence even in stillness.
This is a reflection on transformation—the delicate tension between visibility and erasure, the quiet defiance of simply being."
Tirdad Hashemi, 2025
