Maz Murray
Maz Murray is a trans masculine working class artist from Basildon, Essex. Recent work includes a sequel novel to their film Laindon, commissioned by ICA. Maz collaborated with community groups working in the half-demolished Laindon Shopping Centre to create a sci-fi-comedy-mockumentary about the town's redevelopment. They are currently working on a project 'Trans Panto (working title)' which imagines a future where trans and queer identities are not longer on trend, and former trans celebs are reduced to working the panto circuit. Last year they worked on a performance project called 'Straight Conversion Therapy' where they ad-hacked public space, and put on a workshop for straight women to learn how to be gay. Maz writes cultural and political commentary at the right lube with Hava Carvajal. They use this platform to organise fortnightly sober accessible hang outs for trans people in London.
