Skateboarding has historically been a male-dominated world. Jenny Sampson's series, Skater Girls, increases the visibility of and honors the girls and non-binary people who break down this gender wall. Using an historical photographic process, requiring my subjects to remain still, we are left with a unique, haunting beauty and their respectful strength and determination.
