This lecture explores the Show Me as I Want to Be Seen exhibition at the Contemporary Jewish Museum. Using the work of the French artist and writer Claude Cahun and her lifelong lover and collaborator Marcel Moore as its starting point, it examines the complex representation of a fluid identity. Cahun (born Lucy Schwob) and Moore (born Suzanne Malherbe) were pioneers in their bold representations of an unfixed self. Jewish thought on performed and fluid identity can be interpreted in the book of Esther and in the notion of G-d as “I am that I am,” ineffable and non-binary.
