Sam Geballe (they/them) is this week's Mercury cover artist of the week, and a San Francisco Bay Area trans/genderqueer artist who has been developing a series of self portraits since 2013. The series began as a self-portraiture concept, but developed into something more as the artist underwent gastric bypass surgery and documented their experience. In these incredibly creative and graphically striking photographs, we are welcomed into a very personal journey of an evolving body, charged.
