Saturday 31st of March marks International Trans Day of Visibility, and to raise awareness Adobe Stock has partnered with self-taught Photographer Bex Day to capture a collection of images that celebrate the UK's Transgender community.
There is growing visibility of the trans community in politics and pop culture, but currently a dearth of images that reflect this. In the visual world, old stereotypes often mean there are huge communities not represented because they don't fit into a prescribed box.
The new collection by Bex Day is part of Adobe's ambition to make Stock more inclusive of people of different backgrounds, ages and identities to support marketers and visual artists to more accurately depict these communities and individuals.
Berlin-based Bex Day cast the models from British from Shropshire to Essex, to showcase the diversity of the trans community in the UK across different ages, nationalities and fashion styles.
The Bex Day partnership was born on this month's visual trend, The Fluid Self which explores the ways our concept of identity is changing; from Facebook's inclusion of 71 different gender options, to fashion brands developing no-gender lines. As part of this, Adobe is committed to bringing greater diversity to its Stock library.
Massive thanks to Bex Day for working with us on this project! Check out the collection here and follow her on Instagram and Twitter to find out what she's up to. You can also view her previous work on her website.
