Samira Elagoz and Z Walsh, You can’t get what you want but you can get me (2024)
A slideshow documenting two long-haired trans men falling madly in love. Over the course of one year, the artist couple Samira Elagoz and Z Walsh gathered photographs from real-life events such as their first kiss, meeting each other's parents, long-distance thirst traps, and top surgery and its subsequent recovery. A sweet and steamy celebration of T4T love with life and art all tangled up.
