The Tamir Triad - By Lynn Flewelling
The Tamir Triad is a fantasy series that also serves as an allegory for the trans experience. Tobin, the prophesised female heir to the throne, is disguised as a boy as protection. My interpretation uses elements of androgyny to reflect this theme, while also using a mixture of medieval and Byzantine silhouettes to create the world of the narrative. Prints with influences from both these periods and the work of William Morris are used through out, with motifs that hide further symbolism for the characters.
