Ruth Calland's Pin Ups series engages with the vulnerable 'monstrous' desire for freedom to explore their own and other gender-liminal subjectivities, through images from popular culture. Their vivid technicolour scenes depict real people, often based on videos of and by transgender and nonbinary people from around the world on TikTok, as aspirational figures. What the videos have in common, is a gender-affirmative uplifting joyfulness.
The title of the exhibition is a line from the children's hymn 'Daisies are our silver, buttercups our gold' by Jan Struthers, 1931, directly connecting the value and naturalness of human gender expansion with these hermaphroditic flowers. Calland views their own exploration of gender expansiveness as inherently ecological. Their work contributes to the posthuman ecological project of understanding ourselves as part of an ecosystem again, at a time of rapid biodiversity loss and climate change.
