“My transgender models are dedicated activists fighting to decriminalize sex work and champion human rights. The painting encapsulates their intimate bond, blending tenderness with vulnerability. Through their courageous stance, they seek justice, labor rights, and healthcare, challenging prejudice and fostering a vision of inclusivity and equality.” – Natalie Hirschman
