British photographer Bex Day’s Hen photo series focuses on the older generation of the UK’s trans community

Bex Day told Vice:

I noticed there was a lack of older transgender individuals in the media and, as an ally, I wanted to give them the space to share their experiences, and also hopefully encourage more intergenerational talking points. A large number of individuals in Hen said they rarely interact with younger transgender individuals and I thought it was a shame because it could encourage learning on both parts.

“Hen” is a Swedish gender neutral pronoun.
