About
Who We Are
Transmuted is a trans organisation based in the North of England (currently directed by two absolute eggs).
We are committed to uplifting underrepresented voices within trans spaces and amplifying perspectives often silenced by society. Our mission is to celebrate and support the trans community, foster mutual understanding, and build solidarity both within our community and with the wider world.
At Transmuted, we aim to:
Create platforms for trans individuals of all backgrounds to share their creativity and perspectives.
Make trans culture more accessible to both trans and non-trans audiences.
Establish safe, affirming spaces for learning, growth, and community building.
Empower trans individuals to represent themselves through creativity and advocacy.
Celebrate and inspire trans arts and culture across diverse mediums.
Challenge transphobia through the power of trans joy, resilience, and art.
Intersectionality
At Transmuted, we recognize that the struggles faced by trans communities intersect with broader issues like ableism, colonialism, capitalism, and more. Our work reflects this understanding, incorporating anti-normative analysis and intersectionality in everything we do. From creating artwork to hosting events, we strive to highlight the diverse realities of trans lives.
We are committed to activism through cultural means, creating illustrations, articles, and events that challenge systemic oppression and celebrate resilience. While our resources are limited, our dedication to education, advocacy, and positive change remains steadfast.
The Team
Dorian Rose
Dorian had the idea of creating an accessible space for the sharing of trans work in February 2022. They like making art, reading books about words, and hiding in the wilderness to escape the perceived existence of the normative gaze. Their favourite motto is 'I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm going to try anyway'.
J. S. Gupta
J. S. Gupta is an independent researcher and community organiser. They have determined the gender binary to be 'idealist nonsense' and have allied themselves with Transmuted in order combat those who would enforce gendered existence upon society.
