In 1996, I visited the cabaret "Dolls" on Syngrou Avenue, a district of ill repute in Athens, where transexuals work as prostitutes and put on cabaret shows. I can't say what drew me to them in the first place. As I was getting closer, I was intrigued by their determination at tranforming themselves, their ease at putting up a performance every night. All this was throught provoking, and I admired their courage: they had taken their lives into their hands, against all odds. I wondered, how does one define oneself? What is the process for a new identity to be born? In the beginning, they rejected me, but I kept going back to watch their shows, until Marilou, the girl in charge, eventually said yes. I photographed them for a year.
