Throw Like A Girl: The Tomboy Project (2013) explores concepts of ‘the tomboy’ beyond childhood with the object of increasing tomboy visibility in contemporary art photography. This series of twelve large-scale portraits (and transcripts from interviews of self identified tomboys) was created using digital photography with long exposure times to create a sense of emergence and minimal parameters of sameness that paradoxically allow for difference. The work responds to tomboy experience during adolescence and differing stages of adulthood, whilst mapping the landscape of metaphorical and poetic associations of this aspect of female experience. In redressing the low visibility of the tomboy beyond childhood the work draws on a rich and largely ignored history that seeks representation.
