SJ Norman
Archer Asks: SJ Norman, author of Permafrost
This interview with SJ Norman provides a glimpse into his different identities: as bisexual and trans, as Koori and diasporic, as a writer and artist, and as the author of a collection of stories written by a past self.
Yves Rees: You’re an artist and writer who sits at the intersection of many different identities. What are the words you use to identify yourself?
SJ Norman: My labels shift depending on who I’m speaking to. Labels are only ever useful to me as strategies to mobilise ourselves through the world and in order to be seen. That shifts radically depending on the context.
