“As a kid, Tracey Carswell (they/them) always felt a little different. But they didn’t have the language to explain how or why until they tried on the term “nonbinary” and started using they/them pronouns. Finally, it felt like the right fit.
Then came the chest cancer diagnosis, and Carswell was immediately thrown back into a gendered space that didn’t feel right to them.”
“Tracey Carswell is not just any artist – they're a non-binary powerhouse, redefining the nexus of personal struggle, artistic expression, and entrepreneurial spirit.”

“In the bustling artisanal gold mining sector of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), the daily struggles of individuals like Maya come to light. Maya is an artisanal gold miner. She also happens to be a trans woman working in an industry that is dominated by a patriarchal culture, offering little room for the recognition of diverse gender identities and sexual orientations.”
