Page Person (she/they) is an interdisciplinary artist whose work incorporates drawing, painting, sculpture, storytelling, music and performance. Their ongoing project is based on the deceptively simple statement I AM A PERSON; mining lived experience as a trans person in the downtown Los Angeles drag scene as well as the contemprary art market. Their goal is to cohabitate seemingly oppositional genres and spaces to create a new language of freedom and liberation. Taking their name from the now defunct queer party PERSON created by Bashir Naim, Page Person advocates not just for transgender rights but for all persons to exist as whole and equal. With human rights under attack at an unprecedented level, we as people must be celebrated, loved, respected, seen as beautiful. I AM A PERSON is an anti-othering concept explored visually and through live interaction. We can dismantle the language that divides and oppresses people by asserting our personhood as visibly as possible. I AM A PERSON AND I EXIST.
