Mutilated Offerings was born out of the Brown University course “Trans Cultural Production and Trans Studies”, instructed by Christopher J. Lee. This was our [Ren and Luka] culminating project after studying Trans critical theory and engaging with an array of cultural objects within different mediums. We were both heavily inspired by “Before Trans Studies” from Cassius Adair, Cameron Awkward-Rich, and Amy Marvin and the extrapolation of care to the academic space. We created this piece as a means of emphasizing “an orientation toward each other” (Adair).
