LVC Dreamer project presents you 'FEMININ MASCULIN', a gender fantasy journey through out ///PHOTOGRAPHY-PROJECTION-INSTALLATION///Voluntary non-profit artistic project and exhibition between Paris-Taipei. The exhibition is dedicated to gender and sexual minorities. PROJECT INTRO How does a person find one’s identity and gender? Is the gender determined at birth?
