In this second episode of Trans Joy, the journey continues to Barcelona, Spain, where trans and intersex rights have recently taken a step forward with the passing of the “Ley Trans” — the 2023 law that allows legal gender change based on self-identification, prohibits conversion therapy, and bans unnecessary medical procedures on intersex minors.
This episode features Catalina, a Barcelona-based trans artist and cabaret performer. Illustrator by day and showgirl by night — Catalina speaks openly about their relationship to their gender, their body and their art.
