Mi Vida Trans, presenting, "CHEST."

 Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Ocelotl Mora is a multidisciplinary artist and transgender man of Mexican descent who is originally from San Antonio, Texas. His primary medium is photography, particularly self-portraits and portraits of other transgender men as well as transmasculine and nonbinary individuals of Mexican descent. Combining his portraiture with storytelling, Ocelotl explores the intersections of identity and gender with Mexican culture and traditions. He also embraces the Chicano aesthetic of rasquachismo, which involves crafting something meaningful with limited resources. Ocelotl has exhibited his work in Albuquerque, San Antonio, Salt Lake City, and Miami, and his upcoming exhibit, Chest, aims to normalize the visibility of trans bodies while honoring the sacredness of the gender-diverse journey.
