Lili (1882-1931)
My photos are inspired by scenes from the movie "The Danish Girl", which tells the true story of the Danish girl Lili Elbe (1882-1931). One of the first transgender people to undergo sex reassignment surgery.
Lili, born male, was named Einar Mogens Wegener. By that name he was a successful painter.
"I can't deny it, it might sound weird, but it felt good in the softness of the women's clothes." Lili Elbe
My photos are to show the beauty that exists in the transgender universe, this great contrast between female and male sexuality and gender.
Lili is an important part of the history of this universe.
Should be We are proud of her! her life needs to be told with empathy and dignity.

Brazilian with Swiss citizenship, has lived in Zurich for 15 years.
Degree in visual communication and photography from the Armando Alvares Penteado Foundation,
