Wages for Transition

by Harry Josephine Giles

Wages for Transition is a manifesto zine about transfeminism, labour and social reproduction. It’s an argument and a provocation for thinking about transition as work, and escalating demands and practices for the communisation of gender.

It was commissioned by Dundee Contemporary Arts for their 2019-20 Seized by the Left Hand exhibition.
