The name Jude Akrey written in handwriting.

My name is Jude | my pronouns are they & them | I am a white queer and trans Autistic artist occupying Treaty 3 Territory on the traditional lands of the Attawonderan, Haudenesonee, and Anishinaabeg people- this land is colonially known as Guelph, Ontario. 

I have been living in the world as a trans person for five years, and have self-identified as being Autistic since childhood; I was medically diagnosed as being Autistic three years ago. My life over the past five years has been transitory, rapidly and exponentially changing, and tectonically unstable. My practice is a navigational tool which allows me to discover more about these identities which are both new to me, and intrinsic to me. Queerness and neurodivergence are not only inseparable for me- they are in some ways the very same and cannot be distinguished from one another.
