Flash’s Cross-Colour Series utilizes their inversion technique for developing images on negative paper, subverting traditional norms. Focusing on identity, the politics of skin pigmentation, and gender representation, this series of works considers the impact skin pigmentation plays on Black identity, while also challenging gender and queerness. Their SURMISE series is an account of the various ways queer people are perceived and how visual representations of gender affect our psyches and society. The series features photographs of people from various gender identities. Flash’s lifelong project, [sur]passing, consists of larger-than-life size-colored portraits that examine the impact skin pigmentation plays on black identity and consciousness. This series therefore represents a "new generation" as Flash states, as well as a fresh pride and strength where ambiguity and blurred borders create an individuality that elevates consciousness.
