Womxnhood Vol. I, 2022

By. Lauryn Lawrence

Photographer & Writer: Lauryn Lawrence
Design: Lauryn Lawrence, Julian Alicea, Sunny Lee Musgrave and Andres Perea.

A body of work that has been almost two years in the making and manifested through much work and conversation. I am so thrilled to release the first volume of my photojournalist series titled, Womxnhood.

Within this series, I work to continue to engage in conversations surrounding intersectionality and identity, while also exploring Womxnhood and the ways that each individual in this series contributes to the world by sharing their expressions, and engaging in conversations surrounding their identity and the social constructs of womxnhood through their lens.

actually i love growing older and learning how i work as a person like realizing what kinds of fabrics feel best on my skin or what brand of yogurt i like best or how I want to be touched. watching myself change, enjoying brussel sprouts when I used to hate them as a child, understanding why I got angry in that one conversation 10 years ago… there are so many mysteries inside me that i have yet to unravel and there will always be more and sometimes i think maybe its all worth it

do y’all realize just how beautiful it is that everything is interconnected in this universe like if you didn’t do that one thing then you probably would’ve never met certain people or if you decided to stay in that one place or didn’t read that one book then things could be so different that’s so crazy

does anyone else just feel the strong desire to change, to travel, to meet new people, to just start over somewhere you’ve never been before
