Out of Exile is a powerful reminder of the kind of hostility faced by so many in the LGBTQ community. The piece shines a light on a terrible statistic: forty per cent of homeless youth in America identify as LGBTQ, with the majority coming from communities of color.
Out of Exile uses the radical new technique of videogrammetry to create holograms of Daniel and his peers.
