Nino Jäger (Vienna)

I am queer artist living in Vienna. Born in Celovec, in 1972. My father was from Slovenia /Yugoslavia and my mother from Austria. For many years I defined myself as a feminist lesbian and worked also in the lesbian feminist community in Salzburg and Vienna. Then I rediscovered my transsexual past. So I decided to start with the transition process from a female body to a more male body. On the photos you see me before I started taking testosterone. Now I still do political work but more through my photos and texts than working in political groups. My main focus lies on sex, gender, the expression of the inexpressible and incomprehensive of sex/during sex that allows transformation - at least for the moment.
