The short film, Heather, focuses on Heather B from INC MGMT, an “inclusive agency with a focus on representing POC & LGBTQIA+ identifying people.” This is one part of a broader, long-term project examining understandings of fluidity within London’s LGBTQ+ community. Through interviews with various participants, FIlip is exploring the meaning of fluidity and sharing multiple perspectives on the queer community, whether within a literal/non literal sense or through creating a metaphor from it. He depicts this through visual media in order to transport the viewer into a state of understanding and awareness. Through extensive interviews with members of the community, an empowering and refreshing vision of fluidity arises. A phrase that became a constant throughout his interviews was “freedom of expression”, liberating in the context of using photography as a tool to raise questions about social stigmas. The Fluid State an ongoing project, currently a year old, that constantly flows around the basis of the LGBTQ+ community.
