“There’s this idea that monsters don’t have reflections. What I’ve always thought is that if you want to make a human into a monster, deny them any reflection of themselves. Growing up, I felt like a monster in some ways; I was like, Is something wrong with me that the whole society seems to think people like me don’t exist? Part of what inspired me was this desire that before I died, I would make a couple of mirrors, so kids like me might see themselves, & not feel so monstrous.”
