Biography
Taylor is a second-year MA student studying discourses of risk and desire within formal and informal sex education sources. Using the art practice of collage as a form of inquiry, her work invites queer young people to critically reflect on how desire and risk have been conceptualized and presented to them in various forms of sex education.
