Realness Reimagined

Lydia Lott

My project communicates the problematic nature of the category of ‘realness’ in drag. In the past, what is and isn’t real has been defined straight, cis people. I want to offer hope for a redefinition of the ‘realness’ category, so it is more reflective of the strength of the LGBTQ+ community.
