Beyond The Binary deconstructs the traditional image of the nuclear family, commonly predicated on traditional binary stereotypes & gender roles. Exploring the variations of sexuality & gender in our culture, the project was a forerunner in revealing the diverse family models emerging in contemporary UK society.
Using medium format film the project discovered examples throughout the UK, focusing on LGBTQ communities, that define new approaches to family; highlighting the differences & pointing to the similarities. Beyond the Binary questions who we are beyond social conditioning, what binds us together as families & asks the audience to consider how they relate to others.
